These changes seem like a shitty idea to me. If Comcast can block Igglephans what the fuck am I going to do with my time? Go back to the Philly.com board? Does it still exist? Fuck em, I say. I want my MTV or something...

You have to know that his ISP is going to at least slow down those titty milk sites.

What people really need to be looking at are that the majority of the ISPs in the country are also content providers. Which means they have complete control over making sure a competing product has no platform to stand on (if they see fit). That is what the law is meant to protect.
Still working on a good analogy for this, but so far here is the best one i can come up with -
"You have a new product that you can only sell at Home Depot and Lowes. However both of those stores already have a version of your product they sell and make money off of. What incentive do they have to give your product space in their store?"

One more thing to add to the last para
"You can, in many instances, ONLY shop at one of those stores."John Erlichman, one of President Richard Nixon's closest aides, has admitted America's "War on Drugs" was a hoax designed to vilify and disrupt "the antiwar left and black people" when it was launched in 1971.

And yea, you might get ESPN.com
through your Xfinity ISP, but it's going to be so fuckingly annoying slow that you'll likely only visit the NBCsports.com site.John Erlichman, one of President Richard Nixon's closest aides, has admitted America's "War on Drugs" was a hoax designed to vilify and disrupt "the antiwar left and black people" when it was launched in 1971.

saying throttling concerns are overblown is stupid. My network provider (Comcast) already very obviously throttles my network when I try to stream Sunday ticket or WatchESPN on my Roku. There’s really nothing you can do about it either.
