I was kind of wondering another thing about this proposal. I know it will
make it so we cannot have "fast and slow lanes", but can we block a service
completely? For example, the new sling TV?
Thank you,

Subject: [AFMUG] "Net neutrality"
I just ready yet another article on the so called "net neutrality" the FCC
will be voting on Feb 26th. This government overreach is going to force me
to have to register to collect taxes on all of my customers, which I'll
need to pay someone to do for me to make sure I stay in compliance, which
will require that I raise prices to cover my increased costs.
It will also prevent me from being able to run any kind of QoS on my
network, so goodbye to any decent VoIP calls.
I for one would like to keep the government out of my business beyond what
they already are. The article I read stated that it will likely pass. If
it does, I think something very "extreme" may need to be done. If in
protest every ISP in the USA shut down their networks either until the law
was repealed or for just a day or two strike I think the government would
get the picture, and if they didn't then the millions of people
complaining to them about it would certainly help.
I know that is very extreme, but just a thought. Anyone else have any
ideas? Perhaps if we just threaten to do so may help? I'm just
spitballing here, so please don't think I'm being to crazy. I just want
the discussion to begin of what we could really do to stop this.
Thank you,
