The Trump administration is telling states they will be shut out of a $42 billion broadband deployment fund if they set the rates that Internet service providers receiving subsidies are allowed to charge people with low incomes.
The latest version of the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) FAQ on the grant program, released today, is a challenge to states considering laws that would force Internet providers to offer cheap plans to people who meet income eligibility guidelines. One state already has such a law: New York requires ISPs with over 20,000 customers in the state to offer $15 broadband plans with download speeds of at least 25Mbps, or $20-per-month service with 200Mbps speeds.
Lets not forget the waves of grown-ass men who raged and rallied every time a video game developer like, made a lesbian protagonist with realistic proportions and swore to burn the world down before anyone would tell them what kinds of games they should and should not play…
Who are now utterly and completely silent about porn controls and internet gatekeeping sweeping across the nation as a direct result of the dictator regime they memed into power.
I genuinely would give up video games and internet browsing forever if it meant making some incels shriek in their basement that they can’t fap to My Little Pony porn anymore.
Trust me bro, those freaks you’re talking about will find their MLP Filth (no judgment) regardless. The ironic thing about all these draconian right wing censorship attempts is that it will most likely squeeze out major companies from profits while the high seas gain an ever increasing “market share.” It’s never been easier, and they’ll never be able to stop it.
I hope they make a strong attempt at trying so that maybe the basement dwellers will put their Guy Fawkes masks on and actually do something productive finally.
