This video is pretty compelling. What can we do?

The internet is hurting the environment, so we have to cut back.
read - we dont have control over the internet so we have to shut it down.

That video is TOTAL BS
"Net Neutrality" is a goof ball term designed to make you you feel good about the government regulating the internet.
The issue:
Internet Infrastructure upgrades must be paid for.
How?
1.) "Net Neutrality": Consumers pay for it based on Gov't/Lobbyist( Google) decisions.
or
2.) Let the market work as it is now: Make the content suppliers/profiteers of the web pay for it.
LET THE MARKET WORK, keep government out of it.
hmm
Fortune Favors the Bold
It's difficult to conceive the results of what the video is suggesting. Such a "redesign" of the internet would almost surely collapse the world economy.
Furthermore, it seems like if this is a real plan, it might be prudent for google to begin investing in creating its own ISP network.
Well...jeez!
it's not like you can just have a *open spectrum* where *just anyone* can broadcast and communicate with anyone however they like!
Or can you........? :P

Net Neutrality is a sham. WAKE UP PEOPLE
Dr Ron Paul voted against it.
NET NEUTRALITY = REGULATING THE INTERNET
I hope Im right but Net neutrality is BS

I F------- hate the terms net neutrality..
If you are FOR it, that means keeping the net neutral? ie. what it is NOW?
Or have they done the orwellian switch, like the bastards they are?
Sorry..but I have to say
Sorry..but I have to say that the internet is here to stay. It is almost dominating the world marketplace.

They're not talking about the Internet going anywhere
only that you will have extremely limited access to any websites, like only a few MSM sites. Any other sites will be blocked. There will be no more "free" websites. If you want more than a couple of websites to look at, then you have to pay extra, who knows how much, like $100 more a month. I guess free websites like youtube and myspace would vanish, and message forums like this.
Imagine signing on to your computer and then only being able to go to Fox News bulletins or Google's paid ads.
We need to stop this now.
The article someone provided below from the Nation said:
"If Americans are to succeed in designing an equitable digital destiny for themselves, they must mount an intensive opposition similar to the successful challenges to the FCC's media ownership rules in 2003."
I have faith in the young people.
There is an old saying "Where there's a will there's a way." I'm tired of
all this worry to much to tackle. Peace
2012 is the end of the world
So it makes sense the internet will stop in that year. If you have any doubt just check your Mayan calendar.
LOL people had to stop
LOL people had to stop counting some time lol I mean you can't count forever, you would not get any thing done lol.
I Hope...
That was sarcasm...
Down Load
and burn all the videos you can for dissemination later. Don't wait, they will pull the plug when thing really heat up.
I might add that McCain's side kick; Connecticut Senator, Lieberman is now working to shut down You Tube military video's, and you know how they stuff every other bill with subjects that are not related to the original Bill.
Call his bill the anti free speech Bill!
Ron Paul is right
Ron Paul is 100% right in his opposition to "net neutrality" legislation.
Read what "the Father of the Internet" has to say about it.

This is really horrifying and is seems to be taking shape now...

The nation's largest telephone and cable companies are crafting an alarming set of strategies that would transform the free, open and nondiscriminatory Internet of today to a privately run and branded service that would charge a fee for virtually everything we do online.
Verizon, Comcast, Bell South and other communications giants are developing strategies that would track and store information on our every move in cyberspace in a vast data-collection and marketing system, the scope of which could rival the National Security Agency. According to white papers now being circulated in the cable, telephone and telecommunications industries, those with the deepest pockets--corporations, special-interest groups and major advertisers--would get preferred treatment. Content from these providers would have first priority on our computer and television screens, while information seen as undesirable, such as peer-to-peer communications, could be relegated to a slow lane or simply shut out.
Ah, some of this has already
Ah, some of this has already taken place.
That's bad?
"Internet of today to a privately run and branded service that would charge a fee for virtually everything we do online." That's bad? You'd rather have a government run internet?
I agree with Dr. Paul. No net neutrality. Do not regulate the internet.
Did you even read the article?? or watch the video??
You don't think that cable and phone companies getting to decide what content we can access is scary! Look at the inane MSM. We don't need a "mainstream internet" too.
I believe in capitalism
Private ownership and control of the means of production.
That's Paul's position too and why I support him. Government should not be involved. If someone owns a cable, he, or the group that owns it, should be allowed to decide what information travels through that cable.
i believe in capitalism...
well said billy dee!
"Government should not be
"Government should not be involved."
Exactly. And until government turns away lobbyists, that won't be possible. The Telecoms are in bed with the federal government, so your idea of private ownership isn't exactly what is happening. Corporatism is different from capitalism.
Exactly !!!
.
So the solution is more
government?
Yo Billy...
Your mom said to go upstairs and brush your teeth... It's bedtime little guy...
lol!
lol!
THE LAST NEWS ARTICAL I SEEN

What can we do?
That is going to be the big question. It looks like we might still have some time to come up with something that will defeat those banksters, or should it be gangsters? to stop controlling the only medium where we can freely access information which is already totally inaccessible via main stream.
No access to info gets us where they had us for so many years..
I haven't got the answer but that it is in the pipeline I am sure.
How can we destabilise those in control? Their only means to be able to control us is the vast amounts of wealth they have amassed. A wealth they have created through bleeding everyone else dry.
