Tom Wheeler is not a Dingo!
In a big, massive, amazing move, the FCC has decided to approve the Net Neutrality rules!
This would mean that internet companies don't have the risk of paying extra to ISPs so they won't throttle their bandwidth.
Just as a reminder if anyone thinks this is purely a theoretical subject, when Netflix was negotiating with Comcast for an agreement, they throttled the hell out of their speeds:
So this has been done before, many times actually. Today marks the day where it is (hopefully) no longer a discussion whether ISPs can limit bandwidth to specific services, just because they use a lot of it.
Imagine if YouTube got throttled back in 2005, that site would've been down in a matter of months.
So, in conclusion, good day for the internet as a whole, and also, time for John Oliver to apologize, Tom Wheeler is in fact, not a Dingo.
