Does the end of Net Neutrality have any bearing on the car business?

However, as a rule, I believe the internet should be free.
We fought for years to keep the government out of the internet, I have no idea why everyone suddenly wants them to control it.
The current net neutrality laws had major issues, but maybe they should have adjusted them instead of repealing them entirely.


Full disclosure: I'm in Canada where we don't have to deal with any of this because our ISPs already have regulations in place to force them to share their fibre lines with smaller ISPs, etc. Most cities have 3-4 internet options and they compete using the same infrastructure.

Simply put, it comes down to control. Give groups like Cox even greater control and there could be repercussions. It's too early to tell.

I'm sure it'll be a boiled frog scenario. Nothing will change rapidly, but I'm sure slowly there will be a fee for premium content, lag free 4k streaming, etc.

lag free 4k streaming, etc.

Funny how Netflix, a huge supporter of Net Neutrality, believes 4k content should cost more than HD content
