- bightchee, on 11/01/2007, -8/+597Who wants to pitch in for erecting a huge antenna to steal some other country's wi-fi?
- Elky25, on 10/20/2007, -9/+522wow what a horrible prediction for the future... reminds me of australias foxtel cable tv :(
- Pureeviljester, on 10/20/2007, -10/+377thx, never really fully understood the "net neutrality" until this picture.
- Johnbinarystar, on 10/20/2007, -8/+374The rates are cheaper than what they would really charge, more like double or triple for the top of the line.
Bend over World, and thank your crooked politicians for the pleasure. - swgc5, on 10/20/2007, -7/+306This really gets the message across, dugg.
- FlyCO, on 10/20/2007, -5/+271where's the Bittorrent package? oh, wait
- fisj139, on 10/20/2007, -10/+242If this happens I am going to be pissed
- Professr, on 10/20/2007, -3/+223If this ever happens, people will create a huge mesh network that will replace the ISP's "internet", and everything will be happy again
- echobucket, on 10/10/2007, -6/+225Hey! my picture. :) I did that a long time ago.. amazing to see it still alive and bouncing around the web.
- franklymister, on 10/27/2007, -26/+240Sure, but wouldn't you rather have strict right-wing dogma that allows corporations to do whatever the hell they feel like? Isn't that what freedom's all about? Why do you hate America?
- mattmy, on 10/20/2007, -0/+164i have a pringles can and some duct tape.
- inactive, on 10/20/2007, -8/+170What package do I need for Digg?
- TheGort, on 10/20/2007, -3/+161future? Comcast is already working on it.
- echobucket, on 10/20/2007, -2/+110BTW, for those morons who think someone's trying to pass this off as real... it's supposed to be obviously a fake. I made it just illustrate a point. That the current media providers would LOVE to make the internet work like this, if they could get away with it.
- TypeEE, on 10/20/2007, -8/+109I think net neutrality is the basis for internet. I don't understand who come up with the idea of tiering websites.
- allenthar, on 11/13/2007, -20/+113Oh come on, you're hardly trying! It should be:
Porn $69.69
:P - heepajunk, on 10/24/2007, -18/+101Think of how Fox news controls what people see.
This situation would be 100x worse. - inactive, on 10/20/2007, -2/+83Telephone companies
- IRn101, on 10/20/2007, -4/+83That picture really makes you want to kill someone.
- surfacewound, on 10/20/2007, -1/+79Digg would no longer exist since 95% of the people on the "Internet" wouldn't have access to any of the sites its stories link to.
- ModX, on 10/10/2007, -9/+84Why do I get so depressed when I think of the political system currently in place in the US? :(
- cryptomystic, on 10/20/2007, -2/+73There will be a civil war in this country if this happens.
- iceschade, on 10/10/2007, -3/+72heh, dongle...
- allholy1, on 10/20/2007, -7/+76this picture couldn't have explained net neutrality any better.
- xbox180, on 10/20/2007, -5/+73I physically felt sick when I saw what sites were available for $29.
Then i laughed at the joke. Then felt sick again when I remembered that the some politicians don't have a clue when it comes to how the internet and its tubes work. - inactive, on 10/20/2007, -4/+71Telephone companies
- dreagen, on 10/20/2007, -1/+68Just imagine the price for 20,000 websites...
- ThatEvilGuy, on 10/20/2007, -3/+69That's a nightmare scenario really.
Science forbid if that ever happens, I'll stop using the internet. - inactive, on 10/10/2007, -0/+63if you made something, then i'm sure you would like to acknowledge it
- championchap, on 10/10/2007, -3/+66You laughed at Dongle but not "Pitch" or "Erecting" ??
You win. I'm confused. - Rayor, on 10/20/2007, -13/+75LOSE customers, not LOOSE customers.
It's not that hard people! - Klarth, on 10/10/2007, -1/+61"Hey, that's my picture!"
...
"I'd better not mention it. Someone might take offense." - jaycie, on 10/20/2007, -0/+59NOOOOOO!!!!!
- DaviDaviDaviD, on 10/10/2007, -4/+63Oh well, the Internet was fun while it lasted!
- Easty, on 10/10/2007, -41/+98RON PAUL DOESN'T SUPPORT NET NEUTRALITY, SO I DON'T.
- sotopheavy, on 10/10/2007, -0/+56Google should strait up buy the 700 mhz open it up and be done with it.
- valkon, on 10/20/2007, -8/+63Plus 1 for the term "erecting"
- plantfood, on 10/20/2007, -1/+55It's bundled with the porn and world of warcraft package.
- enivid, on 10/20/2007, -2/+56Porn is priceless!
- whiskeymb, on 10/20/2007, -6/+58Everybody, contact your senator (http://www.senate.gov/general/contact_information/ ... and send them a link to this pic... maybe this is a simple enough argument for net neutrality, simple enough even our retarded congress can get it...
- inactive, on 10/24/2007, -4/+53*FoxNews.com will be a standard with all packages. That way you'll always have access to the *truth*.
- vuke69, on 10/10/2007, -0/+43I have a primestar dish and a USB wifi dongle.
- snotrokit, on 10/10/2007, -3/+46I can totally see the asstunnels (AT&T, Comcast, Verizon, etc.) Getting together and hatching this craphole scheme. they already do it for cable. Basic cable has crap channels, the better channels are up a few tiers. Why wouldn't they apply the same logic to the internet.
it's all about the money. - pabloD, on 10/11/2007, -2/+43um, darknet?
- luxurychair, on 10/20/2007, -1/+40Yeah. Thats the point. He's trying to show us what could happen now that we lost the fight over net neutrality.
- geoboy, on 10/10/2007, -0/+37Dugg up because it bears repeating.
- Akaji, on 10/10/2007, -10/+46As someone whose family tends to lean right... I have no recourse but to sigh and go cry in the corner as the people I love continue to edge us closer to oligarchy by trying to preserve corporations' 'freedom'.
- scubasteve377, on 10/10/2007, -4/+39I would just go with another provider. Oh wait, that's right, i forgot there are no other providers because of the numerous roadblocks set in place by the FCC (the federal government) to stop anyone from entering the market and challenge their government created oligopoly. Well, then I guess it stands to reason that more intervention by the government is the only way to solve a problem created by government intervention, right? Its like a double negative or something like that...
