I am neither a parasite, nor do I support this government.

But it's not because I live in my mom's basement, like you do.

He already stated he does not support it.....and that is also obvious from any number of thread posts over many weeks past.

Re: FCC proposes FREE INTERNET FOR ALL BILL, that is faster than WIFI & could penetrate thick concrete walls and travel over hills and around trees.
Yeah, that is not gonna happen.

Obvious reasons being:
This would be covered by increasing taxes.
Corporations will fight this tooth and nail.


This is what they should do:

Provide free internet through Wi-Fi. <1Mb
Buy internet from local service provider. >1Mb

Honestly, it baffles me that this model hasn't been applied yet.

you guys have no idea how change works-- when you are resistant to change its way more painful - than surviving a few inconveniences and working towards it being better.

And since most of you are quite satisfied with the way things are - like the fact we pay for water-air-and electricity - all of which CAN BE FREE.....

yea - its going to be more painful for you.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 24208912


What exactly are you saying here?? It sounds to me that you have a hidden meaning here. My interpretation of what you are saying is that if we resist the New World Order, it is going to be painful. Now, I can read all kinds of things into this. And when you say better...better for who, exactly??

We have always paid for water-air-electricity, and it always could have been free...but, obviously it wasn't, and quite obviously, it never will be. You actually think that I would sell my soul, to save a little money?? I have lived 53 years, I haven't sold out before, and I am not about to do it now. Especially, now!

I am not satisfied with the way things are now...not because I can't enjoy life, but because the government f**** us every way they can, all for their own gain. They don't give a sweet diddly about us, that has been proven for many years. With the way they have overspent the money that the hard working people have earned, it is all gone, because of who, them!!

So many of us are unhealthy...and why?? Because the government wants it that way! We are not worth anything to them healthy. In fact, we are not worth anything to them when we are alive, once we hit retirement years, then they have to carry us. We are easily dispensible. So...don't spout off to me about change being for the better, especially when it has anything to do with the government. I lived through the times when we didn't have all of this technology, and it was better then it is now! Do I use the convenience of technology now? Yes! But that doesn't mean I couldn't adjust to the way it was before, cause I remember!

Well said, Prof. X. Why do so many innovators, whether they be programmers, scientists, or whatever like to create these powerful gadgets and then simply hand them over to the govt. or some other powerful entity to then possibly be used against them in the future? Then, when power and finance is centralized the ptb can decide which of your projects gets funding. And if the project gets funded they get to take it from you as soon as its done and possibly use it against you. Why do you build your own cage? Why do you create the tools of your own slavery & demise? Freedom is a friend to the innovators out there. Recognize before it's too late.

My apologies for calling you fraudulent.
I've been in the IT field for almost 2 decades, and I've never encountered a programmer with such a naive, suicidal attitude toward government.

I simply assumed, based on statistical evidence, that you were as full of shit about your vocation as you are about the threat of giving government even more control of communications.

Sorry for that assumption. You're unique.

I don't think he read the whole thread...he came in at a time that Professor Xavier was being sarcastic to someone about the internet being free. He should have read the whole thread so he could have gotten the tone of what is REALLY being said.

Re: FCC proposes FREE INTERNET FOR ALL BILL, that is faster than WIFI & could penetrate thick concrete walls and travel over hills and around trees.
So how do they plan to make this new "WIFI" that could penetrate thick concrete walls? I can see a system built below the 800MHZ range, but that raises other issues. And also that doesn't even resolve the problem of interference that has never really been solved other than going to the GHZ range (The reason why all cellphones went into the higher frequency range, because for the last 30 years, they couldn't figure anything else out).

So what's new? Because I doubt they have anything up their sleeves but bullshit.

1) Lack of philosophical, deductive, and ethical grounding.
2) Inability to extrapolate.
3) Deferral to authority.

 Quoting: Professor Xavier


Yeah, and just ignorance of how the world works and what their creations might be used for. It's fine to work for another person obviously, but it depends on what is being created. Compartmentalization and propaganda can keep people sometimes unaware of what their work is actually for. And as finance and govt. get centralized, it might be harder to get certain projects funded or to have access to one's work. You hand the creation over and it could be used for all sorts of stuff and even used against you and your family later on. I think that most workers assume that they're helping to build a world that they'll get to use. But it's not a given, esp. if everything becomes too centralized.

Lol nothing is free without a catch.... I guess when the internet is in the hands of private companies it makes it a little harder to monitor & control but hell when the government gives it away for free your using it under their conditions. Im sure thats only the tip of the iceberg too....

You would be foolish to think anything good can come from free government internet.....
