Talk about desperately trying to make the pro-Net Neutrality party look bad, when the anti-NN ones are the perpetrators. Someone should trace those IPs and arrest the bastards.

[QUOTE]Defying the facts, the law, and the will of millions of Americans, the Federal Communications Commission has voted to repeal net neutrality protections. It’s difficult to understate how radical the FCC’s decision was.
The Internet has operated under formal and informal net neutrality principles for years. For the first time, the FCC has not only abdicated its role in enforcing those principles, it has rejected them altogether.
Here’s the good news: the fight is far from over, and Team Internet has plenty of paths forward.[/QUOTE]
I can only hope this hasn't become so highly partisan that it will be straight down party lines. Even then, I would imagine it would be vetoed by Trump, considering he compared NN to the Fairness Doctrine.

Prior to Obama stepping in to regulate it, it wasn't even a partisan issue and most Republicans also supported Net Neutrality (excluding the politicians bought out by lobbyists). Once Obama stepped in, that was when the tribalism started, which was only further exacerbated by Trump and company stepping in and commenting on it.
Most of the people who blindly dislike Net Neutrality just because "Trump wants to trigger liberals" are probably the types of people to post on the most vulnerable communities (such as 4Chan or 8Chan) that would very likely be some of the first sites that ISPs could block or heavily throttle due to their perception of those sites.
