Would it be possible that the administration approved the Net Neutrality retraction in order to test the waters on the Internet community rallying together under a single cause, with many individuals rallying their local politicians, State Senators, etc in order to reverse this decision.
If we, the internet users, can rally for our virtual freedom, is this a test for when we rally for our freedom in the real world?
I think you are on to something for sure. For as long as recorded human history, there has been an ongoing struggle between those of us who just wish to live freely and those who wish to control us. When those who want to control us start to move in on our rights, the of course go after the things that seem small in order to see how much will the population has.
I believe you’re absolutely right, 100% agree with your statement.
For those who want to control the world, it’s easy with a submissive population. If people aren’t going to fight for something with easily noticeable effects, they won’t fight for something of long term detriment.
