Because they are gov't subsidized monopolies that own all the pipes and spectrum.



So?

The fact that they are monopolies calls for a tougher line and no compromise absolutely.

Are people so scared of these guys that they are basically going to corrupt all the politicians? I mean, if they lobby, google has more than enough money to match their lobbying and the fact that they are "monopolies" makes google's argument even more powerful, not to mention that they have the backing of the public and the president.

So why compromise? Go for full attack! Fight like brave men. We did not have to compromise with Hitler tho there were plenty I heard who wanted to do so at that time.

You know good and bad are not some metaphorical stuff from the bible, but real concrete stuff which applies to the real world. Internet prioritization is evil, in any platform and form.
