There was no Off-topic forum so I'm putting this here.
Remember to contact your Representatives about FCC and Net Neutrality.
Basically Net Neutrality puts the internet under "Title: II" as a utility rather than a product.
This prevents service providers dictating how you use the internet.
Without Net Neutrality service providers can literally control the flow of information.
They can redirect to a different search engine if they don't want you to use Google.
It is the road toll of the internet. However, just like roads, they are no longer optional products. We depend on the internet for day to day things.
The repeal of Net Neutrality is a move to privatize the internet and further depriving people of opportunity for learn and boost their careers.
A repeal would allow them to make you pay for every little thing you want to do on the internet.
For example: If Comcast does not like Netlfix and are invested in Hulu, they can make Netflix never load or be a slog to go through, incentivizing to either pay extra for Netflix or to just go to Hulu.

✭✭✭✭If you are an Online Gamer they could make it impossible to play games like ESO unless you payed extra.
Which would suck for console players who already have to pay $15/mo to use internet services.1 -
Raethek✭✭Letting technology into your life is filled with shadow lies. Technology only furthers corporations to feed on us even more, opening more and more markets as people depend on tech more and more. It's the price we all pay when we let the salesman through the door, sometimes that salesman isn't even real but is really good at making things look tailored to us and in this day and age those things may not even be real.Edited by Raethek on November 25, 2017 2:09PM0 -

✭✭I don't live in the USA... There is nothing I can do about it
.
Would of been nice if you hadn't voted a doofus into the presidency... or your electral colleage hadn't... who is hell bent on undoing everything Obama did and is just doing whatever actually rich people tell him to do. Argh!
But you just had to invent the damn internet so you can destory it decades later. too many of these global tools are under your jusristiction. This is probably one of the few times I am glad every company moves to Ireland and Luxemborg to avoid taxes.0 -
ZOS_MattL✭✭✭Hey there,
We understand your concern about this issue but the ESO forums are not the appropriate place for this discussion. We do not allow discussion of political topics on our forum as well as topics not related to ESO.
Thanks for your understanding,
