In fact, forget the ISP!

And then be immediately sued into oblivion to prevent competition from popping up. Better get a good legal department!
BluesAndTheAbstractKnuth
Yeah, but when municipalities try to do this publicly, they get sued by Comcast because fuck if I know why.

I mean Netflix won't mind, just means you'll table their bandwidth bill.
mitharas
People don't realize the huge costs required for this.

If I had the money, I'd do it in a heartbeat.
majoraz
Good fucking luck with that, even Google couldn't afford to start an ISP with the infrastructure costs and big ISP's cockblocking them.
glear
But you probably need money to maintain it haha

Fuck the hookers. Free Netflix is cool though.
somespazzoid
That is what you do with hookers

Ahh screw the whole thing
ConfuMeister
use VPN to enjoy net neutrality? Basically do what the Chinese is doing. Oh, how the tables have turned.
Sofakingwetoded
That's scary.
TheWinged7
No, that doesnt work becuase you are still hitting a bottleneck on your end if your ISP decides to put you in the "slow lane"
ConfuMeister
ISPs can't choose to discriminate between customers;only websites/services. Unless they identify any and all VPN services...
ConfuMeister
and associated IP addresses, I don't think it's possible. Also,identifying and neutering networks like Tor will be even difficult.
Bugrush
At least you have good intentions... no potential... but good intentions...LOL ;-)
PaintedSlate
We should elect people with good intentions and no potential. At least that's better than neither.
Tsamane
Well, my family and I can't live in good intentions, Marge! Oh, your family's out of control, but we can't blame you
Tsamane
because you have gooood intentions!

Free Netflix provided by an ISP would be illegal under net neutrality.
LordCowBell
Free services are allowed under net neutrality (youtube was still a thing). Prioritizing or throttling that net traffic would be illegal...
dowingba
No it wouldn't.
Omgeddieb
Who said anything about net neutrality?
mysteryAccount1
I have bad news...
BluesAndTheAbstractKnuth
No, _unlimited bandwidth_ to Netflix with limits on everything else would be illegal. Is different.
Abracanawbra
Second. The if data is treated the same no foul, just a bundle. If Netflix offered an exorbant rate for anyone else still NN, probs legal.
peeeopeepeee
Yeah well guess what isn't a thing anymore
ThatWeirdClownfishGuy
Thank god for that.
nihilistdad
No, thank the corrupt commissioners for that. You think they repealed NN so that ISPs can give you freebies? Think again.
Imanyone
Why so serious?
MasterMookie
Not unless they made a deal with netflix to include it in the price?
ThatWeirdClownfishGuy
That would be prioritizing data, not neutrality.
Sheepsaurus
Nope, not allowed to treat data differently
MasterMookie
The data isn't being messed with. the service on the other hand is being provided
CaptainHanderpants
Thank you. Some satellite providers even offer Netflix or Hulu for free just for signing up. Been that way for a while.
PSWIIsixty
That wouldn't be treating the data differently. Just having the cost bundled with the internet cost. The data would remain the same.
AfatCatnamedHiggins
Otherwise, wouldn't be illegal to use T-Mobile, Sprint or AT&T?
