no net neutrality?
No Worries!
Many, if not all of you, have heard of the controversy that is net neutrality. In fact, it has been one of the most tweeted topic over the past couple weeks. I personally believe that everyone is making a big deal out of it. I mean, we're being stripped of an open Internet, so what? Obviously big companies want the best for their consumers, so why shouldn't we trust them?
Just think. We don't even need the Internet in our society, just like how trains don't need train tracks to function and cars don't need roads to drive on. Why send emails when you can send letters? If we can survive without the Internet itself, why does net neutrality even matter? Why shouldn't ISPs have the control over how they should deliver service? It would just be like how the police department chooses who to defend and who to penalize, right? Or like how doctors and nurses choose which of their patients to take care of. Or like how firefighters pick and choose which fires to put out and which ones to leave burning houses down.
Though supporters of net neutrality argue that without net neutrality, bigger companies would have priority speed, while smaller companies would die out. However I don't see what the concern is. Just tell those smaller companies make more money and not go bankrupt. Simple.
All in all, if you don't understand what net neutrality is, don't support it! Don't do your own research on it, as educating yourselves is a waste of time. Just take my word for it and DON'T SUPPORT NET NEUTRALITY!

Finally someone is bringing attention to this ! I feel like nobody knows or cares about net nutrality ! The fact that you wrote this in a very satirical and sarcastic tone makes it all the more informative.
ReplyDeleteI really believe that people should be informed about the societal effects that taking away net neutrality would cause as well. I actually though you were serious though when I was reading this, so good job!
