Exclamation An end to net neutrality? 5$ extra for youtube? haha

So reading up on this whole net neutrality which they have been talking about forever now... its kinda funny how things will go the other way.. you would think that our children and the generation after them would have unlimited access to everything especially as tech progresses and the form of communication expands... but NOOoooooo... its all about $$$ in the end....

so lets see now.... our parents... basically had no internet and therefore, their knowledge base was greatly dependent on schools, books and social skils... then we have our generation.. who wouldn't go a day without accessing something on the net... and who can't write an essay without googlin something... who carries a dictionary nowadays?

so you would think... the next generation would have complete communication with each other... instant live video chatting, instant live menus from restaurants, realtime news reported straight to your ear piece etc. etc... but the only thing thats gonna happen is.. they gonna start charging money for every little thing. and in the end... not everyone will have the equal chance to stay communicated.

If 3rd world countries had internet access...for everyone.... it will make a huge difference.. but they don't because not everyone can afford it... just like that... if net neutrality is discontinued... then lets just say.. not everyone will be progressing forward. the more information we have access to, the better. information should be free in the future. not the other way around.

kinda sucks..



plz disregard any mistakes i might've made.. i'm sick and the last thing i want is a troll correcting me with my grammar on a forum. BUT.. PLEASE let me know what you guys think.. GOOD OR BAD... it totally doesn't have to support anything i have mentioned... and if i'm wrong about anything, you know what to do!

I agree with net neutrality but where did you find that pic above with prices . Who does it represent with the information being portrayed ?
We live in Canada and have a POS regulator called the CRTC . Who sit on the backsides and do nothing about anything. Look how long it took them to allow cell phone numbers to be ported to other companies.
They can't do anything properly .

It's a pic that I modified. It's not real, just a visual representation of what might happen if net neutrality was to be terminated. The original pic has some other company from the us with pretty much the same idea.

I agree with you.
