Welp... Now when the people in command can't do what they want they will put it back just like they did when they cut the FAA and then all the flights were delayed out of Washington and they immediately put it back how it was.

Wow that article is such BS! Cable compines couldn't care less about getting internet to BFE. How will this make them any more motivated to do so? And how exactly will this give more options? If they wanted to offer more options they would. Now the only options they will offer will be pay more for what you HAD or get less.

Repeal also means they will stop treating internet like a utility. No/bad internet, move somewhere else!

FCC head made a comment something like "bandwidth for self driving cars is more important than cat videos - they will need 4 TB of data. my note: and that is assuming everyone is doing captcha's fast enough to keep the "smart" cars moving.
