Maybe I'm wrong, but I think that's what he's saying. The companies fund people that already share their ideas (will make them the most money) rather than directly try and bribe/coerce-through-witholding of campaign funds.

saw that the other day, and then right afterwards saw this on reddit.

Yeah, he put that on his facebook page almost immediately after the tweet.
Sounds like more idiots who vote against their own interests advertising their stupidity for everyone; they keep getting dumb and dumber, too.

Oh lawd
Jones warned his listeners that allowing consumers to access any website or online service they wish without interference or additional charges from Internet service providers was some type of totalitarian scheme
So free and fare access to all of the internet is totalitarian? WUT?
New Internet Stuff to talk about!

Just going to post the title in the quote since you can pretty much interpolate the rest, and its worth a laugh to read.AT&T wants to know why a town is building a 1Gbps network when it already offers 6Mbps DSL
Delicious capitalism (until it's inconvenient for a megacorp).
haha just read this and was coming to post it.
absolutely absurd that any attempt at creating higher speed broadband competition could be blocked by the state at the "request" of corporations.
Who the fuck wouldn't want fiber in place of dsl for a similar price? And seriously capping your already shitty dsl speeds?
http://arstechnica.com/business/2015...-fcc-chairman/In a one-on-one discussion with Consumer Electronics Association (CEA) President Gary Shapiro, Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Chairman Tom Wheeler implied that Title II of the Communications Act will be the basis for new net neutrality rules governing the broadband industry. Title II lets the FCC regulate telecommunications providers as common carriers, and President Obama urged the commission to use Title II to impose net neutrality rules that ban blocking, throttling, and paid prioritization.

Is this for a real or just a giant cocktease?
The vote is next month, so we'll see soon?
i want to believe
Praying kitten sums up my hopes and dreams nicely. Ars is pretty solid too...they wouldn't tease our cocks on this magnitude.
There's also another article floating around that the legal definition of broadband will be bumped to 25 or 10 down and 3 up. from the current 4/1.
I hope that happens and soon, it'd let me switch tracks to streaming instead of having to just do Youtube.
^ Yea read that article yesterday. Pretty hyped about that also.
I'm hype but somehow I feel like he's going to give us some Title II-Lite or something where it's going to end up being business as usual.
