    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

    How u gone tell me it’s a lie when I do this ? for a living

    Take a node that only services one apt building with 300 customers. First and foremost the capcity is gonna hit the roof during peak times.

    So you need a node that’s capable of splitting the return. That’s a 3000 dollar node. Second because you split the return you need to put the returns on separate cards. That’s one node, if you have a hub with at the very least 20 nodes.

    At least 5 of those nodes will require the same measures. That requires a powerful and updated cmts That’s 60,000 dollars, then you figure if ur trying to move forward and provide at least half a gig to each customer as Obama was trying to push as a standard when he was in office. That requires eventually each node to be on its own card on the cmts to accommodate that much bandwidth.

    Then because every node is it’s own card and none are combined. That requires more network tech to track the noise that customers create and cause low SNRs which also slow internet speeds.

    Added to that higher capacity will lead to u needing another cmts for every node to be on its own card.



    Because cable leaks, and one loose connection at one modem in a node of 300 customers can bring SNRs to levels so low every customer regardless of speeds they pay, will experience ? speeds.

    A way around that is buying connectors that only need one twist to make a complete seal. The avg. RG 6 connector is 30 cents a pop. Them ? is a dollar a pop.

    Anyway, all that ? adds up to a high bill, and all anyone will feel like is they are getting ripped off. Like that money they put in don’t go to operational costs to wipe the ? that customers create off of the ass of the plant

    Yep, they can slow the bandwidth down and make you pay more.

    Comcast had a deal with Xbox so yeah they could slow down the online gaming for PS4 servers if they wanted to

    Then Sony might have to go with a Comcast competitor. Meaning that future gaming purchases could be influenced by which provider you have. That's on top of looking at what other services your internet provider gives and restricts when looking at what console to even buy.

    Looks like you could have PS Plus, but not be able to access Netflix. Have Xbox1 and only be able to use Amazon Prime. Then the extra cost of both game companies still maintaining their exclusivity could trickle down to game prices.

    Also, all this happening while Disney is gobbling up Fox media.... I've got a funny feeling bout that. Iger feels the repeal could benefit them greatly now and it's true. But if they were to expand into gaming and buy a company like EA... I wonder.

    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.

    Where and when did I "blame" Obama? Y'all kept bringing him up in here to make some type of "point"

    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.

    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.

    How ? When net neutrality laws were passed during his administration ?

    And when it's specifically the laws that were passed during the Obama Administration that the Trump administration just repealed ?

    Yep, there's a reason why 80% of Americans supported net neutrality. Republicans are the ones that put net neutrality laws into effect.

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

    Where and when did I "blame" Obama? Y'all kept bringing him up in here to make some type of "point"

    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.

    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.

    How ? When net neutrality laws were passed during his administration ?

    And when it's specifically the laws that were passed during the Obama Administration that the Trump administration just repealed ?

    Nothing to do with net neutrality getting repealed. And my point was that Obama nominated the guy that ended repealing net neutrality

    1. They tried to repeal it during Obama's tenure, and it didn't happen.
    2. What does it mean that Obama - nominated the dude ? Was the dude trying to repeal net neutrality when Obama nominated him ? Does Obama hold any office right now that has power over net neutrality being repealed ? Are you saying Obama should have predicted the future actions this dude would take - and ignoring the fact that Obama upheld net neutrality while in office? Trump is the one in office right now.

    And Obama only put in in the FCC at the request of Republicans for some sort of middle ground.

    And MFs say Obama didn't do anything.

    In 2011, Pai was then nominated for a Republican Party position on the Federal Communications Commission by President Barack Obama at the recommendation of Minority leader Mitch McConnell.

    Bruh...

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

    That are repealed during by Trump's administration....

    It's Obama's fault ?

    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 you 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.

    I already stated my point.
