How does Net Nutrality affect SE/XIV?

[Gumbercules]

Comcast was one of the biggest instigators of why NN got reclassified as title 2 though, i.e a utility. NN was part of the 1996 telecoms act (or whatever it was called) It was just under more relaxed classification. Imagine like the ESRB for example, and what is currently happening with lootboxes. The ESRB is failing its consumer protection duties under the eyes of some law makers so they are starting to step in. Title 2 was just the law makers stepping in. NN being something that magically popped outta thin air is one of the biggest misconceptions/deflections being tossed around by the pro-repeal propaganda machine.

As for how it affects those outside the US, namely as someone else said it could lead to a bad precedent. Also access from abroad to US base services could see slow down/ taxation. That said, I do not think other 1st world countries woulda blatantly ignored 80%+ of their population on an issue like this, even within the US government there were those asking for a delay on this vote until certain things were cleared and they were ignored with no consequence. I do not see that happening somewhere like the UK for example, to say the USA is in a bad way atm is an understatement ... we could give places like Russia a run for their money now.
