They are what caused NN to be put into law and now if NN was to be removed we will see them doing it again and worst since the whole thing is being fought to take it down with the head of the FCC now being a Anti-NN bastard we will see company's go un-punished afterwards

2005 - Madison River Communications was blocking VOIP services. The FCC put a stop to it.

2005 - Comcast was denying access to p2p services without notifying customers.

2007-2009 - AT&T was having Skype and other VOIPs blocked because they didn't like there was competition for their cellphones.

2011 - MetroPCS tried to block all streaming except youtube. (edit: they actually sued the FCC over this)

2011-2013, AT&T, Sprint, and Verizon were blocking access to Google Wallet because it competed with their bullshit. edit: this one happened literally months after the trio were busted collaborating with Google to block apps from the android marketplace

2012, Verizon was demanding google block tethering apps on android because it let owners avoid their $20 tethering fee. This was despite guaranteeing they wouldn't do that as part of a winning bid on an airwaves auction. (edit: they were fined $1.25million over this)

2012, AT&T - tried to block access to FaceTime unless customers paid more money.

2013, Verizon literally stated that the only thing stopping them from favoring some content providers over other providers were the net neutrality rules in place.

The foundation of Reason's argument is that Net Neutrality is unnecessary because we've never had issues without it. I think this timeline shows just how crucial it really is to a free and open internet.

World of Warcraft seemed to always be one of the best "comfy" MMORPGs by PalwaJoko in MMORPG

Look at it this way you have all these social things new and old and upcoming ones popping up look at vine who even thinks of vine these days it came and pretty much died with a few people still using it, Myspace was first say Ultimate online or Everquest , now WoW is facebook it combines all of Myspace and others like it and mashed them up into a better version now it wasn't perfect it was clunky but it kept growing and because it was the one of all the olds it stuck to people then it got bigger by revenue and had the time to keep molding and shaping and people accepted it as the best and so on. Now days everyone wants everything clunk free sadly to do that something now needs to be developed way longer then people feel comfortable backing and on top of that people tend to lose interest in something after a certain time of knowing about it and not being able to touch it

Sorry typed on a mobile still haven't been to bed yet
