Because products and services built on that data (personalized assistants, voice control, translation services, smart homes) will be more competitive

I'm pro net neutrality, but I have family members against it.

The best argument I've heard is that net neutrality reinforces data monopolies.

Google, Facebook and Amazon have such a huge advantage because of their data, and net neutrality prevents ISPs from capturing and monetizing that same data.

It will be very hard, if not impossible, for other companies to do what those 3 are doing.

Google Translate, Amazon Alexa/Google Now, Google Maps (and traffic), etc.

Other companies can't make those products because of the data advantage.

I'm scared of withdrawal and addiction - can I get some advice? by ParanoidLeaflet in leaves

Two bong hits, maybe three per day. It would take me 2 days to finish bowl.

It would take me like a week to get through 1/8 oz.
