If you want to really mess with people, insist that net neutrality causes climate change.

Remember when our internet speed was going to be throttled and we would have to pay per tweet?

I don't know if I've heard Biden say anything about NN, but I thought at least a few candidates brought it up in the debates.  Same tired arguments that anyone paying attention should just laugh at by now.

Haven't seen any NN fearmongering on the tech sites in quite some time.

We pay $60ish for 500MB, I think, from Cincinnati Bell

500MB per second, and this site is still minor leage?

Seems like speeds are just marketing now.  A family of 5 all streaming netflix simultaneously need only like 75mbps for the highest quality streams.

It's been about 6 months since the last check-in. Everyone still alive?

Fortunately, Biden just requested the FCC restore Obama's NN rules.

Saved at last!!!  Biden has slayed Covid AND the Internet.  What a boss!

HOW DID WE EVEN SURVIVE THE LAST 4 YEARS? It's a miracle we're all still here.
