Good Guy Professor.
Using part of the lecture time to talk about an important topic, to inform those who knew nothing about it.

Nobody notices the imgur on laptop?
DrShrinker
We already pay for tiered speeds. NN is more about control of info, how its treated, and who is allowed to block what.

It always surprises me when I talk to people who have no clue this is even happening. Why aren't there more news stories about it?
TheInternetNeedsMoreCats
It's not a controversy, it's the every man's world vs a handful of assholes. I've never seen such bi partisan unity honestly.

He was playing Bloons tower defense, he only got to round 83 then failed.. yeah he should fail

And i bet no one even paid attention

Ay, I'm doing a speech on Tuesday about this. Glad to do my part too.

is this at UWO? i swear it looks identical to a room i’ve had class in

North campus building?
dragonnu
Didn't realize soo many UWO people were on here.
otterintheflightdeck
Honestly wouldn't have thought most people at UWO would use imgur
dragonnu
Yeah, looking at the people that go here I wouldn't think anyone besides the eng/compsci students would spend time on imgur/reddit.
otterintheflightdeck
and then there’s me in SSC haha

Too bad its kinda waaaaaaaay too late to be making people aware of the problem.
SirLieutenantSloth
Most Canadians aren't that aware, and it's never too late because most likely America will have to fight to get net neutrality back
rezpawner
"Complex and controversial"? No it fucking isn't. Greedy motherfuckers want more money, and fuck you over. Super simple stuff.
GooberMonster
Nothing that's simple when routers and switches are envolved.
KNIVESY
It's not controversial. 99% of the US population agrees.

The grammar tells me the students need a refund.
nanyatenyaa
The meaning of each bullet point is ambiguous due to use poor usage of English. The same ambiguous language ISPs use.
yourcreepyunclefriendly
Doesn't look like many people showed up to listen, lol
Viper3232
The auditorium may be larger than the class that it was scheduled for. I had a class of 800 in a room seating 1300
WheesnawButtons
"Net neutrality means *that..."
VodkaReindeer
Don't stop there. The whole bullet point is a disaster.
Danowar1990
Oh sure, HE gets to use Wikipedia as a source
woollyeyes
Exactly what I was thinking.
aragornd2
I started school after a 13 year hiatus, and almost had an aneurysm to see there is an MLA guide for citing tweets.
Derptator
I wish we could favorite comments
TwoSeamer
I get why it's controversial as a source (anonymity?), but don't get how it's that much worse than the yokels being cited in my grad class

HumansArePrettyNeat
Things are starting to change. Even as I was finishing University in 2010 you could include it as long as you'd vetted the sources it used.
HumansArePrettyNeat
But you needed to include a permanent link to that iteration of the page rather than the "latest release" link and only with some profs.
RawSuger
controversy? making it easier to charge people is going to be great for people charging,ok for those w cash to spare, shit for everyone else
OrangeFlavours
It is controversial. There's countries without net neutrality, it's not automatically horrible. The biggest argument is "The corps will 1/2

Who would win: 300 million normal American citizens, or some spendy bois?

TristanVIII
The rich get richer and the poor get poorer, just the way these assholes like it.

MileHighLivin
I feel like the controversy is that neutrality is only 7 years old, and we never had These internet packages that everyone's worried about.
CatWithHands
No. Net Neutrality has been the standard since creation. The NAME Net neutrality is new, created when someone tried to get rid of it.
MileHighLivin
https://nyti.ms/1DWSOsM it's even more recent than I thought.
MileHighLivin
"Until 2015, there were no clear legal protections requiring net neutrality"
Youareobscure
There were still protections. Prior to 2015 ISP's were regulated inder title 1, but Verizon sued them claiming title 1 didn't apply and won.
CatWithHands
Correct. Because people understood that keeping the net neutral was best.
KalaKat
There are also those people that are stupidly misinformed
prophet002
How are you people so oblivious.
pareidoliaperson
Everyone else IS everyone else! Also more salary doesn't you want to spend more (you can) but they want equality as well.
RawSuger
if you can pay extra for better access that's in the interest of upper middle class. if against it they're either cheap or not assholes

Buy a couple grand worth of shares in companies you hate but must deal with (airlines, comcast, etc.)--that way you have some, limited 1/2

welcome to capitalism
DenimmChicken
Yeah capitalism 2.0
RawSuger
this current version of capitalism*
OrangeFlavours
2/2 fuck us over! The isp's will fuck us over!" Like the 'they'll charge us for netflix' doesn't happen in places without NN...
RawSuger
the only reason to have it is to be able to charge people for things you cant currently charge them for. if corps are pushing for it...
OrangeFlavours
Or, or, other people actually want it and it's being pushed because people have differing opinions from you. Like donald trump is president.
OrangeFlavours
Any of the 'reasonable internet people' didn't want donald trump elected, but it happened, because the internet isn't everything.

Why the hell remove it if you got positive reactions

Based on what it was I think maybe the Imgur moderators removed it?
