Boon posted:Did ACA repeal happen? The most important reason it failed is because of unprecedented Democratic partisan solidarity. The second reason is marginal Republican senators who felt pressure from committed activists as well as voters who weren't committed Republicans. But there's a reason activists focused on motivating voters in vulnerable districts.

Crain posted:Russia's not buying botnets to astroturf the place anymore. Now it's only the true believers at /r/The_Donald trying to replicate their massively inflated success during 2016 and it just isn't going to work. Why let some foreign idiots take away jobs from local idiots who are perfectly willing to do it for free?

The other ISPs take them to court for every single utility pole Google wants to use, at least here in Austin that is what has delayed them.

If this stupid bill gets passed someone should just invent an alternate internet where this poo poo doesn’t go on. Call it internet v2 or something.

Like it's not good, it's not good as this thread even but it's weird that it's gone from 4chan trashfire to like, kinda normal human news topics in like half a year. It's been wholly anti-Trump since Hillary won the nomination. It's still Reddit.

Knowing the idiocy of this administration I am going to guess that someone sent Trump's tax returns through their private Gmail account and Google has been sitting on it for leverage at a later date.

Arrgytehpirate posted:Well, bad news. I'm being moved to part-time next pay period because of financial issues. I'm possibly several pages late on this, but if no one has already said it, you may qualify for unemployment benefits if your hours are cut. Depending on your state, you might also qualify for some sort of health benefits (I'm from MA, so no idea how true that is in other states, but worth a look at least).

It's weird because mostly everything only gets worse forever and that forum went from 4chan stuff to anti-trump to like, a normal human forum.

Out of curiosity, before the FCC decided to classify the internet as a utility back in 2015, what exactly was stopping ISPs from segregating content and making pay-for-specific-content plans like we all know is going to happen?
