sunspotz User ID: 807724 Canada 11/01/2009 03:09 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | That can be easily solved. There are some websites out there that the affected community can easily "redirect" their traffic to, and those sites may get a bit more attention than they'd prefer. Not talking about DDos, just if they want our bandwidth then they can have all our http requests too -- if they think they can handle them, lol. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 790836 India 11/01/2009 05:12 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | This isn't about 'wall street'. It's about controlling free speech and media. When TSHTF they want us to be in the dark about what's going down. They will only spoon feed us the mass propaganda that they want us to ingest. |

Social networks and youtube are huge uncensorable pool of information. GLP is small in comparision. GLP won't handle the masses of people who browse youtube or facebook. |

Quoting: Jesus N Palsseems more of a way to tell people what they can and can't do.. That too Just stay in your homes, watch Our Glorious Leader on your telescreen, and keep your damn mouths shut. |
Atheist User ID: 805039 United Kingdom 11/01/2009 07:23 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Gotta admit, they kind of have a point. Quoting: Rocket ManIts bullshit to sever the connection we all have to each other. Fuckers need to die. I meant about the fact the US internet will get clogged up with 300 million people logged onto facebook and youtube. Atheist |

Every major ISP has traffic control software. Financial sites can be given higher bandwidth priority without completely BLOCKING the bandwidth of other sites. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 807807 Thailand 11/01/2009 09:49 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | 1. Every major ISP has traffic control software. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 7908362. Financial sites can be given higher bandwidth priority without completely BLOCKING the bandwidth of other sites. Thanks AC. Do you mind expanding just a bit on the two points above. Such as traffic control software that does...what exactly? 2. would result in slower connection but not blocked access, correct? Sorry for the lack of knowledge, but I'd like to have a basic level for conversations. TIA |
