Like what? TCP/IP? The closest thing to regulation we have over that is the IEEE[^], which is... *gasp!* Another PROFESSIONAL organization, not the FCC.

servers
You mean web servers? Domain names? Do I have to mention ICANN[^], which is in charge of overseeing domain name and IP address assignments? A group that USED TO BE part of the government, but has been split off into an independent entity. Or are you talking about the physical servers? Because there's NO way you can justify your theory that the FCC is regulating my old Debian/Apache box.

web-browsers
The software? Seeing as how anyone can make their own web browser, there can't be any FCC regulation there. Web protocols, then? Hey, look! The W3C![^] An international organization that includes both private-sector and public-sector members. No FCC authority there. So where does the FCC come in?

Well now the FCC will regulate standards. Note that this will slow down advancement and innovation and push up prices just like the CNBC article said.

You're just making this up as you go along, aren't you? You've been completely proven wrong, so you just pull another statement out of mid-air and expect me to just accept it as valid. Not happening. If you want to make a point, back it up with evidence.

You've got the right idea... I keep smacking the TV, but it just keeps spitting out static. I think we've moved beyond prose.

I read it when you posted it yesterday. Now show me where it says that it will give the FCC control over any of the privately-regulated standards I listed.

I want to know... Did YOU read the article and REALLY read it? For someone that purports to see how they are all trying to take us over, you missed something so glaringly big it is comical... Who stands the most to gain if they are allowed to decide how traffic will be on their networks? ISPs Who will charge companies to not be on a stupidly bad connection to their customers? ISPs Who has almost no competition thanks to their practices of not interfering with one another? ISPs. Who is buying 51% of NBC? Comcast. One of, if not the, largest ISPs in America. I love how they show how Verizon's bottom line might get hurt but ignore that these companies have been forcing local, state, and federal tax money into funding their infrastructure improvements for years. Why is that not mentioned in this hit piece? In fact they act like THEY paid for those pipes, when a good amount of the infrastructure was paid for by the states. Iowa is lined with fiber. All of it laid down by the state government. That fiber makes AT&T's 3G possible. Soon they will be putting antennas in for 4G capability. Using funds that are matched by the Federal government. Why? Because none of the carriers want to invest in the infrastructure. But they will sure as hell use it once it is up. The piece was written by ISPs for ISPs and is trying to make Google out as a bad guy because it knows as soon as the ISP can make something to compete with a business and then they strangle the business' pipe to consumers, they will do so. The track record is there. It isn't the government you should be worried about, it is the corporations that are taking advantage of our tax dollars and trying to act like victims when they are told they can't be effing bastards and to stop screwing consumers.

All that is due to the FCC though, moron.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_censorship_in_Australia[^] Internet censorship in Australia currently consists of a regulatory regime under which the Australian Communications and Media Authority has the power to enforce content restrictions on Internet content hosted within Australia, and maintain a "black-list" of overseas websites which is then provided for use in filtering software. For all you morons on denial, here are some facts for you. You are under censorship, and it is going to expand.

Here's a fact for you. The 'filtering software' is curently not mandatory. So yes, the government control what can be published on Australian web sites just as they control what can be published by the rest of the media. There s nothing on the internet available to you that is not available to someone in Australia. If you want to talk about censorship what do you think of America's responce to Janet Jackson's tit? Americans sue over a fucking nipple for fucks sake. You really are a massive dick head.
