Ask Noah Show 360 | Net Neutrality with Senator Kevin Cramer

This week Senator Kevin Cramer joins The Ask Noah Show and we discuss net neutrality! It's a more complicated and nuanced issue than most people give it credit for. Our access to the internet these days is like running water. -- During The Show -- 01:50 Senator Kevin Cramer Interview Common Carrier - treat all traffic equally Net Neutrality - ISPs must treat all traffic equally History 1934 Title 2 1980 Computer 2 Policy 2002 Cable Broadband gets an exemption 2005 All ISPs ARE NOT common carrier 2015 ISPs ARE Common Carrier (Gov Take Over) 2017 Ajit Pai repeals net neutrality If the infrastructure has been subsidized by tax dollars, should that infrastructure be common carrier? Would it make more sense for this to be under the FTC rather than the FCC? What would you say to people who only have one good choice for internet? Ma Bell Sweet Heart deal Chevron doctrine Openness principles throttling blocking price discrimination Blocking World of War Craft ISP deals with apartment complexes to block other providers Digital divide Universal Service Funds ISPs are independent businesses What stops companies from putting smaller players in the "slow lane" Bot Question - Also, aren't the ISP's notorious for promising expanding broadband in the past, but they deem arbitrary numbers as "enough" for consumers, yet countries like Sweden & South Korea are thriving with broadband putting the US to shame. What impact if any do you believe net neutrality would have on ISP competition? Do you think the Communications Act needs a complete overhaul to bring it in line with today's technology? Should the federal or state government step in to break up local monopolies that are not serving their customers well? 42:00 Expand pfSense VLAN? - John PFSense "automatic fix" Subnet masking check for a /24 reboot networking devices 47:38 Virtual pfSense? - Rhett This works!
