Your graphic headline is cute, but the majority of people who know how the internet works, how bandwidth is allocated, and how DU gets to your screen are just not freaking out, no matter how much you want us to, over returning to the Internet Dark Ages of 2015.

If the one I got starts ripping us off, I'll take my business elsewhere.
Free market, baby. And a heck of an opportunity for an up-and-coming
enlightened ISP to cater to the 'rest of us'. Who happen to be 'most of us".
Fuck anyone who supported this repeal.
