In fact, they're the ones who want to ensure that no one violates your freedom.com. There's more to freedom than being allowed to spend your money exactly how you want it. Like for example rules which prevent you from stepping on other people's rights.
Thank you for all that groundless racism/nationalism. How about an apology?

Not likely. And from what I can tell "Net Neutrality" does NOT equal "Freedom Online." That's the whole problem here. The spinsters are spinning this on both sides.
I ain't no Republican, and I argue FOR net freedom and AGAINST rules making us treat all trash on the net equally and preventing us from paying for better or preferred net access.
Now I don't deny that Shamrock pointed out some concerns in the US and Canada where internet providers had acted like tools. I trust that the market is better to control that type of behavior than some bureauon.
And if you don't like my disdain for the European Socialist governments and their command-and-control style, then.... um... move?
