    I would agree that they are arguing for qos, if they didn't say NN. I think they are false flagging the knowledgable to keep them quiet.

    Refusal to use is luddite territory. Even if it's not secure, there are many non-secure things a computer is useful for.

    Sorry, but you don't get to explain what you meant when you wrote a law. You get the law you wrote.

    The example you are looking for is more like a commuter lane which nobody really disagrees with, but now they block one taxi company from using it and only allow their own limo fleet.

    Like it or not, peering is part of the NN debate. When there is only one usable ISP in town, you have to have regulations to take the place of any market incentives.

    You act like it's a zero sum game. It's not. Life is a competitions with winners and losers.

    SSL certs are to blame for some of this. I you are trying to get azdept.com and you have registerd azdept.com, you can get that no problem. If you are trying to get dept.az.gov.us you need to get your ssl approved up that whole chain. The owner of .az.gov.us, the owner of .gov.us.

    It's a painful process.

    If you see a system that is paying you to be a customer, you are getting ripped off, even if it's hidden. You aren't getting ripped off as much as the people who don't get CC rewards.

    Your using my childern's money to get your tax cuts. Your using my children's oil to drive your car and my children's trees to make you papers. I am aghast at all the pollution you are dumping on my children's planet.

    See what I did there...

    I would stack my carbon footprint against yours obviously entitled single life anytime.

    Actually, your reasoning is more like the quiverfull. You are asking people to make a huge personal sacrifice for some mythical future good.

    Let's turn your questions around and ask why any of those things affect you? My point is to live your life, have as many kids as you want to and don't worry about someone in India filling the planet with their children.

    We all get the same shot, don't sell yourself short because of some imagined future problem.

    If your revolution is non-violent, it will be stomped into the mud and hijacked by the violent. Things will be worse for years and years. They might get as good as they are now in your children's lifetime. They will be impressed because they didn't know how good we have it.

    This is a classic mistake made by many intelligent people. If your town/state/country is bursting at the seams and unable to provide sufficient food/water/shelter, then your too many people theory makes sense for you. If not, you are doing a disservice to yourself and future generations by limiting your offspring. Why should the values of the Duggers, India, or China have greater future weight then your values?

    Sure, however everyone has an example where they bought long term and still lost support because the company closed up shop. Corporate law makes this sort of investment too risky for most people.
