Net Neutrality

Just watched this news rant by John Oliver about Net Neutrality. I find it sickening that companies like Time Warner Cable and Comcast have essentially created a monopoly in the cable and internet provider sector. There are little to no choices in who you want to provide internet services. Most people are limited to one or two companies to choose from when looking for service in their area. Now these companies are pushing for laws that will allow them to limit the bandwidth that they deliver streaming media over forcing companies like Hulu and Netflix to pay if they want their services to not suffer for these customers. Isn't it enough that TWC already charges their customers tiered levels of bandwidth?




So what are your thoughts?
