    Once these sorts of networks let you get talk radio over IP nearly for free will you admit liberals are better a solid 70% of the time?

    The peering agreements are fine. You pay for a pipe you get that much bandwith and maybe there is a data cap. If your ISP can't pay for it's network connection when it owns a portion of the backbone itself and still charges customers 100/mo for internet.

    Well I guess they need to go out of business.

    Who says they won't have access to a local cache? Who says there won't be p2p caching soon after all of this catches on. Hell we can have a whole p2p web and you might just pay your local mesh provider for seeding.

    Not that different from the internet when it didn't suck actually.

    Actually community dialup radius networks used to be somewhat common. They were ran by mixtures of nerds, schools, and other community organizations. Often they'd sell radius access to commercial ISPs for their ppp dialup.
    It's already happened before my friend.

    How can you not know this with a 4 digit ID?

    Not when the streaming service is p2p from other people on your local mesh. I can even see netflix offering edge caches, either for a little cash by the node operator or for free just as a big fuck you

    Except this is community based. So when you live downtown and a free or near cost wifi opens up because someone was nice, there really won't be much the ISPs can do about it. They could try to deny connections to the people but if the AP goes to a VPN and they run a an internal tor routing node on the connection it would be pretty hard to figure out who is running these things for awhile.

    Once people start to use them and like them, it'll be hard to put that genie back in the bottle. Remember back when ISPs wanted you to pay extra for each computer you had on the internet? Lol.

    If they could make the internet better they have had plenty of networks they could do it with. They still could make ISPnetPremium but they don't.

    The existence of an open internet defeats the price collusion schemes that make these networks profitable.

    Funny that the internet cost less back when it was handed over from the government to private interests. Now I wish that the rest of you losers were stuck on MMS, compuserve, and aol where you belong. Sure I'd be on dialup having to beg and hack access from people but at least you wouldn't be there.

    Oh dang I have a bit of egg on my face. Still you're doing a little fence sitting here.
    The crazies are actually the best thing. Somewhere there is a total fucking nut on disability who hasn't left his house in years. He's been sitting there watching days of our lives, dragon ball Z, and spanking it to my little pony over bittorrent. Safe and sound where we never have to deal with him.

    I hope one such person gives that smug fuck a creampai to the face in public for closing his psychic bond to twilight sparkle. Terry Davis. Paging terry davis the internet needs a hero!

  15. Yes the majority of extremely stupid loud people are actually paid shills. It's a fact, it's simply what the trend shows.

    Simply all the proven facts show that we'll be developing telepathy and the internet will be obsolete soon, this is the simple truth as trends show. Where are you hearing this stuff? You seem to be dumb with lots of firmly held misconceptions.

  17. I challenge you to explain why we're going to be ok?
    It always sounds smart to be the naysayer whenever someone says the sky is falling, because usually you're right but this time you're not. Think of every time our society regressed. There was always some ignorant guy like you telling people to chill out.
    We had natural net neutrality before and last time they tried to violate it we had 4chan sending pizzas to houses, hacking emails, and prank calling guys like Pai until they gave up. Net neutrality was codified because some companies were in a panic about netflix and started rolling out evil plans. Now it'd being de-codified so that they can proceed with their previous evil rollout.

    People are still confused about net neutrality... but let's stop crying about it so that in 10 years when we have to watch porn metered by the minute through AOL cableboxes... we can look back fondly on slashdot's twilight and remember that that all the articles were about bitcoins and sexual harassment.

    You should not be using acrobat's special features. It will mean that many people can't use your freak-standard documents and it's a huge security risk because acrobat is shit software. It shouldn't be used for anything except plain non-forms documents without encryption, without javascript, without forms. Acrobat has a bad history with it's crypto implementations and no other viewers support it's other stupid features.

    Saying you don't want to support the alternative and get your job done is just saying that you're willing to deal with issues when Tim at PartnerCo can't use the document he got from your company and you're ok paying money for the privilege. Plus there are all the phony features like document tracking that don't work right. That will turn into an opsec nightmare when someone too stupid to learn a new product is also stupid enough to believe that the document tracking feature isn't an easily defeated gimmick.
