He must not keep up with the news if he doesn't realize DOGE has been a failure. Unless he's actually signaling that he wants Trump to cripple the FCC into uselessness while not saving the taxpayers anything.

Before anyone jumps on this guy's bandwagon cuz its fuck musk sentiment, look at his proposal from a net neutrality perspective. The chairman who opposed passing 2017's title II net neutrality legislation is proposing more crack downs on everyone's access to alternate ISP options.

THE FCC HAS AMD ALWAYS WILL BE IN THE POCKET OF THE MAJOR INTERNET SERVICE PROVIDERS WHOSE MAIN GOAL IS TO BOTTLENECK EVERYONE INTO ONLY HAVING ACCESS TO THE INTERNET THROUGH ONE PROVIDER FOR AN AREA SO THEY CAN IMPLEMENT POLICIES LIKE BADWIDTH THROTTLING, CENSORSHIP AND ELIMINATING PIRATING CHANNELS. The only defense we have against losing net neutrality is by lowering their customer retention rates when customers jump to other companies. Which is only effective when there aren't regulations limiting the number of competing providers.

There are plenty of reasons and justifications for saying fuck musk but this is not one that is worth the potential cost to your net neutrality.

FCC commissioner writes op-ed titled:
"Fuck me daddy 🥵"

Some areas can be a lot worse than "less uniform".

We’re gonna be so fucked. Get ready for shittier experiences with internet providers and cell companies.

My HOA bundles an Internet plan directly into their fees, giving me absolutely zero choice whatsoever. It’s exorbitantly priced too at $100 a month. It’s getting more popular to do this in my state because it blocks you from even using wireless carriers like for Verizon for your service. They take the money even if you don’t set up the service.

Fuck you commissioner and fuck everything you represent.

The Redneck doing oil changes in his front yard is fully within his rights. Mind your own business.

That's also not what I'm referring to. I work in real estate so I've seen it all:

• grass four feet tall
• a dozen vehicles parked all over the lawn
• fences fallen down and left on the ground
• the entire property being used as a landfill/scrapyard
• rodent infestations

Remember Lina Khan? She was there only a few months ago. Depressing as all fuck how quickly they’ve undone her work.

Edit: I mixed up the FTC and FCC

With the sole exception of the rodent infestation all of this falls under mind your own business. It ain't your land stop thine bitching.

The rodent infestation is a result of the other factors and general lack of cleanliness. Sure seems like my business.

If things do get so bad that there is an active health and safety issue then contact the city or county.

There is a condo they just finished making in my state. They stated your Internet is priced into the HOA fee - and there was absolutely no wired Ethernet; only wireless. It was $3,000/month for 850 sq ft + $500/month HOA fee.

sounds like a perfect setup for a torrent farm. they can't stop you because you're forced to pay for it.

do it. get a good VPN and do it. I know how these networks are usually architected - they probably will never notice. use as much bandwidth as you can over a VPN and they'll probably never really see it. also there's likely no bandwidth cap, since the fiber circuits that feed these units are also usually uncapped in terms of how much data they can pass per billing period, unlike Spectrum/Comcast/VZ/all the other shit ISPs out there.

I know I don't notice a heavy user when I look at my metrics and even if I did, I don't get paid to care. just don't get caught with your VPN off, they probably will see that and disable your service or give you a call and tell you you're being a bad user a la Skippy.
