This is clearly something the Republican and especially Trump voters really wanted.

I remember how often he mentioned this at his rallies

Sorry man, only thing this did was hasten the process. It was going to be sold at the end of the year the same way.

This just pushed it up a few months.

Trump is great but not perfect either are the rest of republicans. But it's a much better option than the alternative. I don't get it, do some getbiggers actually wish Killary would have won?

I think the real question is does anyone really think that she wouldn't have completely ruined America seeing she was Obamas second coming?

I posted this in another thread:

Toothless piece of legislation:

This bill offsets the late-January FCC rule preventing ONLY ISP's from collecting and selling your data. Not the rest of the internet (That means Google, Facebook, that farming app on your phone, etc., all legally allowed to collect and sell.). In my humble opinion, the government shouldn't allow some companies access to your data, while restricting other companies access to that same data. Also worth noting that you can opt out of your ISP's data collection should you choose (although it is a pretty tedious task). The government isn't here to play favorites, nor should it be here to consolidate money and power to companies like Google, Facebook, and Twitter.

The free market has a way of working things out. Should the demand for privacy increase to the point that it's economically viable for an ISP to advertise that they don't collect any of your data, it will happen.



Until then, I want my royalty check every month from my ISP provider for selling my info.!   :D

Yep, my understanding it was somewhat of a pushback against "donations" by these companies to get what they wanted originally for themselves alone.

What's the problem here?  What can anyone hope to profit off my IP browsing history?

a photography site I contribute articles at
ebay

I mean... it ain't like they are going to sell me anything or detect any terrorism activities from those sites I visit.  So this legislation means nothing to me.

Pretty shitty, if i remember correctly you can opt out of this with your ISP but honestly this seems like something you should have to opt into.
