    Look people, cable companies do not have to capcity to provide the bandwidth for which it sells. It is very very expensive to have everyone allocated speeds up to and above 500mbps. It’s very very costly

    But they aren’t going to tell u that because what u say u can’t do. It won’t stop the next company from lying to u and saying they can.

    So these companies seem to be in truce mode. Because the only way they can cost effectively provide everyone with the bandwidth they need to provide reasonable ping time is to have control in directing traffic.

    They can’t just give u have a gig step back and say have at it. Even tho it’s what they sell you. They can’t...you been lied to and before it all implodes. ? like this happens. It’s not as much as an attack on consumer as it is an admission of guilt in lying to consumers.

    That attack already came, people were just made to believe the attack was a benefit. When the benefit didn’t truly exist

    This is a lie, it’s why European countries bandwith is running laps around us

    Japan also and it has been for years.

    Bruh...

    So even though the Obama administration created and protected the net neutrality laws...

    That are then later repealed during Trump's administration....

    It's Obama's fault ?

    jaguars-fan-cant-believe-it-nfl-fan-gifs.gif

    Do you actually research ? or just blame Obama ? I actually remember when the net neutrality ? kept coming up and kept being upheld by the Obama administration ?

    Bruh do your own research on the ? you post before you post it, and stop trying to be so anti-Obama that you keep shooting yourself in the foot.

    Trump Jr. Mocked for Blaming Net Neutrality Repeal on 'Obama's FCC' Chair
    Thanks, Obama. It seems that Thursday’s vote to repeal net neutrality rules had something to do with the former Democratic president, despite the fact that President Donald Trump picked Ajit Pai to head up the Federal Communications Commission just two days after taking office. At least, that’s what Trump’s son appears to believe.

    In a Twitter post on Friday, Donald Trump Jr. criticized people complaining about “Obama’s FCC chairman” voting to repeal what he referred to as net “neutality.” He also “bet most hadn’t heard of it before this week.”

    Obama appointed two chairman of the commission under his presidency, neither of which were Pai...




    Donald Trump Jr. mistakes Ajit Pai for 'Obama's FCC chairman'
    Donald Trump Jr. incorrectly stated Thursday evening that Federal Communications Commission head Ajit Pai was former President Barack Obama's FCC chairman in a tweet attacking the “outrage” over the agency's net neutrality repeal.

    ...

    Pai, who led the agency's vote Thursday to repeal Obama-era net neutrality regulations, was appointed to the commission by Obama in 2012, but it wasn't until this year that he was elevated to chairman by President Trump.

    The eldest Trump son, who has a penchant for calling out "fake news," has not issued a correction for the error in this tweet.

    Bottom line is this!
    Don't bring up Obama if you are not going to blame,criticize or ridicule him, because he didn't do nothing as president and he didn't nothing for black people! He should never get positive credit for anything while he was in office!

    That's been my opinion,narrative, disposition....whatever you call it.....for the last 8 years
    And it's too later for me to change ...call it pride,ego stubborn....I don't really care

    My bad, I must've mistaken that post about Ajit being appointed during Obama's administration as some sort of passive-aggressive blame-shifting of this clear travesty by Trump.

    And while I was at it, I might've also mistaken your follow up-post for backtracking on the original one.

    I can clearly explain the relevance of Obama to this topic (he defended net neutrality), if you can explain your reason for replying that Pai was appointed during Obama's administration.

    Every president has good moments and some even have great moments and they all have ? ups and bad moments.

    For their good or great moments they deserve the credit due to them.

    For their ? ups and bad moments they need to take that blame.

    Folks don't need to be criticized for giving them credit nor do they need to be criticized for pointing out their bad moments.

    Just be fair all the way around the board.

    That was just to counter the whole "but but I thought Obama did nuthin 4 black people" passive aggressive talk. Obama has nothing to do with this at all.
