Let the music industry try to make their own streaming service. I'd love to see the crap that produces. Let the streaming industry try to make their own content. I'd love to hear the crap that produces.
That's because porn is too fucked up to be regulated. And if you try to force pushing regulation through a backdoor, they'll moan a bit but they'll like it anyway.
Who says market wants thinner phones? When all the companies are making are thin phones, of course you're going to sell a lot of thin phones since there's nothing else.
For a real test, you'd need a company like Apple making two iPhones that are 100% similar except in thickness. The thicker model would only have a bigger battery for a similar price, i.e. if it costs $10 more for the bigger battery, that thicker iPhone should only cost $10~20 more. That would be a true market test.
If a global catastrophe happens to/on Earth, our only hope will be a self-sustaining colony somewhere. Mars seems to be our best possible chance so far.
Of course, if unfettered control were given to the engineers, a phone would probably weight 6 pounds and the battery would last for several months, so it's really a lose-lose situation.
Engineers would not design six pounds phones, but they would stop this thin-at-all-cost craziness happening right now.
Except that this is about internet service providers, so there is no "shopping elsewhere" for most people.
And even if there was a choice and you are thinking of throwing the words "free market" in a reply, think again. Look at current prices and speeds. There's already collusion between the ISPs to have as little differences in prices and speeds as possible.

Reddcoin or Dogecoin would be perfect for that.

I'd take a guess and say they're too complex and dangerous compared to nickel-iron.

Wait, there's a flaw in your reasoning... what about the theme park and blackjack?
If Bitcoin crashes and Monero takes its place, then you haven't even seen what high GPU prices look like yet.

How can an internal combustion engine track license plates?
What would kick ass is a small Elon Musk doll with a string in the back which when pulled makes the doll say "May the schwartz be with you".

There's thin enough and there's why the fuck are they trying to make it even thinner?

The new MacBooks and Kindles are GLUED SHUT. The battery itself is also glued to the case. How is that easy?
Destroy the free market that never existed?

Try easily replacing the battery in an iPhone, iPad, Kindle, MacBook, etc.
Oh, I did not even think of that. Nice nerdy touch.
I did laugh at the big-ass Reese cup at the end though, not sure how many people in the USA will even get that reference.

But only Burger King has the whopper, which is their point.
ISPs could throttle your access to Netflix, Hulu and YouTube for example.
