Unfortunately, Americans today are weak. Everyone is way too self-obsessed with their own pitiful, pathetic lives (family, jobs, house, creature comforts, etc.) to actually take to the streets and protest like their parents and grandparents did during the 60s to fight for their rights and those of others.

The Internet, despite its tremendous potential, has proven to be a massive liability, as it gives people the illusion that they have done something useful and constructive after they post angry comments on message boards such as this one. At the end of the day though the truth is this: political representatives will only really represent the populace if they are constantly worried about real backlash, such as if hundreds of people are gathered outside their office blocking access to vehicles, buildings, and so on.

On December 17th, 2010, Mohamed Bouazizi famously set himself on fire, which precipitated the Tunisian Revolution and the wider Arab Spring. At this rate, America is going to need equally brave and selfless individuals to make a stand and spark similar movements.

It’s possible that he actually believes Net Neutrality is bad policy.

I’m for net neutrality but I at least recognize that it’s possible to disagree in good faith.
>deterministically (and reproducibly) produces one U.S. dollar of value.

Can that really be said of anything, with the nature of markets, and supply and demand?

If I invest in solar panels, or oil wells, then the expected value per unit sold of the product I produce will be dependent on a massive number of predictable and unpredictable inter-playing forces in a global complex system.

While I can make forecasts of an average expected unit price by studying historical prices, factors affecting them, probabilities of various events, etc. there is also the case that my very selling of the product has an effect on the price I can expect.

As a supplier at a certain scale I can expect revenues to follow a downward curve, with each unit supplied a certain amount of demand is satisfied and thus lowering the overall market price and my expected revenue.

It's not exactly a one-way curve, at higher supplies and lower prices, new avenues of demand can be opened and prices can follow a curve upward.

I like the idea and thinking you've proposed here, but it seems like the complexity of markets is more complicated than Kolmogorov complexity.

It seems the like what produces value in terms of the most optimal ratio between input and output is always in flux. And when a maxima of optimal value is found all the mechanisms of market forces work against it being deterministic and precisely reproducible.

I think to deduce a measure like you proposed in an economic context you would have to have a product that is absolutely finite in potential supply and all potential uses for the product strictly defined, enumerable, and un-extendable. And therefore lowering JumpCrisscross complexity would simply be a matter of optimizing production costs.

But I'm not sure any such scenario exists, it would require a deterministic understanding of the universe and it's constituent parts that we don't have and it would have to preclude the ingenuity and creativity that seem to be key human qualities that drive the flux and change we see in the world.

So according to this reasoning no matter what answer you give, you don't understand the issue.

NN is about regulating the internet. Economists are experts in the domain of regulation.

They're not all what people traditionally mean when they say protest, but the parent was talking about violence -- which I consider a separate category from protest. Definitionally, any act that registers disapproval or objection is protest -- so everything I listed is covered.
When I was reading this, I was reminded of a company - Blockstream.

These guys are have a satellites which broadcasts bitcoin blockchain:

I can be wrong but I wonder - what might be the impact of a non-neutral internet on cryptocurrencies?

Obviously any impact will depend on how much of bitcoin or any cryptocurrencies volumes are from US. I tried to look it up and found this page:

That's not what those charts say. Less than a sixth of the economists surveyed think nn is a good policy.
The webcrypto api also can't stop the server from sending malicious javascript to a user which when run uses the webcrypto key to decrypt the user's data and send it back to the server. Also, if the server is malicious on the first connection, then the server could just not use the webcrypto api to begin with, and just make use a key that the server knows instead.

The webcrypto api is still pretty cool though. I've been hoping for an excuse to use it sometime.
Yes. And?
https://www.fcc.gov/about/overview

> The Federal Communications Commission regulates interstate and international communications by radio, television, wire, satellite, and cable in all 50 states, the District of Columbia and U.S. territories. An independent U.S. government agency overseen by Congress, the Commission is the federal agency responsible for implementing and enforcing America’s communications law and regulations.

I am real curious why people think that the Internet, which is a communication medium, is not within the regulatory authority of the FCC.
At a base level, it's amazing that money counts as free speech.
What? It's never easy, but you can definitely do multi-cloud/regions without Cassandra. It's not the only database that does multi-region nor is it a good fit for every scenario.
And so you could have a single-party system and you'd end up with a split of conservatives and liberals. It's not about party, at least not about blindly voting for one party.
The prescription of changing sequential_page_cost to
equal random_page_cost is certainly reasonable for SSD, but I wonder if the underlying issues aren't somewhat deeper and more interesting. One difference between a sequential scan and an index scan is the amount of data being scanned. PostgreSQL stores information horizontally as rows and a sequential scan will have to read in all column values of all rows. An index scan will read through all values of a _single_ column. The 50x performance difference _might_ be just that the whole row is 50x wider than the width of the indexed join column.

An interesting second factor relates to the nature of the SSD storage. With SSDs a read request will pull back a 4K page, even if the read request was smaller. So it's not quite right to say that a sequential read and a random read cost the same on SSD, particularly if the same 4K page must be read multiple times. I suspect that the particular index technique used by PostgreSQL tends to organize data such that successive indexed values reside in the same 4K SSD page. IOW, it's not so much that the cost of random SSD access is the same as sequential SSD access (though that's true), as it is that the PostgreSQL index mechanism doesn't require multiple reads of the same 4K page.

if a Hash-based index was used instead of a Btree-based index, and if the table width was narrower, the sequential scan might have outperformed the index scan.
Consider translating the energy consumed into money (one can easily sell and buy energy). Then compare the rapport between the total value exchanged in btc and the total cost of energy with the rapport between the total value exchanged in fiat and the total costs incurred by the financial institutions and people to have that (the cost of buildings, the cost with employees, with their servers, with transporting and securing physical money, etc). That would be a much fairer comparison in efficiency.

And if bitcoin wouldn't be more efficient after the abive computations, the fact that people keep using it means it brings them some extra value for which they're willing to pay the premium costs.
You seem to be interpreting this very literally as money lost from bank accounts.

Banking involves a lot more than simply money in checking accounts so I didn't think it needed to be established that a lot of people lost value in different ways in 2008. A number of banks packaged subprime mortgage lots that were misrepresented, sold and when they defaulted, they crashed the lending market which rippled through other parts of the economy causing job loss, real estate price crashes, stock value crashes and other types of lost equity for millions of people.

But I guess if you want to take it literally, then you're right... nobody had cash go missing from their checking account. I personally lost about $60,000 in equity, but my checking account was not affected if that makes you feel warm and fuzzy about saying no banks lost anybody's "money".

While civil disobedience etc. are useful forms of protest, we haven't exhausted other avenues, like actually showing up to vote. And the parent post is talking about violence, not just civil disobedience.

The act you describe at the end of your post happened in a dictatorship where the people truly had no voice. While we may live in a flawed democracy[1] we're not in the same situation -- we do still have nonviolent ways we can turn things around.

A lot of people are asking this on the various forums, but is misunderstands what actually happened.

Many of the major regulatory bodies work in the same way. At the top of the body, there is a board of political appointees. For the FCC, there are 5 commissioners.

Of these 5 Commissioners, 2 are always Democrats, and 2 are always Republicans. That last one, the chair of the committee is always the current sitting President's choice.

This is done this way, to keep some stability among the various administration heads across washington.

So during Obama's term, a Republican chair opened up on the commission when Meredith Baker resigned to lobby for NBC. That meant a Republican needed to be appointed to the commission, so Obama asked Mitch McConnell for Mitch's recommendation, and Mitch chose Ajit Pai.

When Trump took office, the sitting chair of the commission Thomas Wheeler (Obama's nominee) resigned, and Trump elevated Ajit Pai. Trump then filled Ajit Pai's Republican seat with another Republican, and now the board is majority Republican.

So Ajit Pai was not Obama's recommendation. Ajit Pai was Mitch McConnel's choice for the then open Republican Chair on the FCC Commission. Its a little strange, but this is traditionally how its always been done.

Now as to your other question: this last sentence is just conjecture, but we know from the Russia investigations that Trump had a tendency to demand loyalty pledges from his appointees, so I suppose we shouldn't be too surprised to find that Ajit Pai is marching so steadfastly towards this single policy agenda, despite all of the obvious flack and harm it is incurring on him and the nation in general.

I suspect a lot of people feel this way.

You're right, your individual vote isn't remarkable. And yet, voting is the only legal direct action any normal person can take.

If only there was some way you could convince more people in your community to vote with you. Then you might have something.

No. To save the internet, we have to make the most gigantic stink the world has seen since the Trump election.

The solution is not "give up and let this pass, and then quietly try to work around it." It's "make the people in power pay DEARLY for their transgressions."
I appreciate that. Reddit would have me believe anyone who is for market solutions to internet concerns is some sort of total anarchist who wants to burn down everything we have.

I want to note that NN is something we've only never quite had for 2 years, and for the rest of the history of the internet we did not have.

Thank you very much for posting that. I read through the information.

To be honest, I'm not sure the poll correctly shows overwhelming support. Certainly the numbers from the poll show overwhelming support - however the poll is of 1,008 people online. And, the results of the responses are weighted for demographics.

Regarding weighting by demographics, I still remember during the last presidential election cycle how there was a single 19 year old Black man in Illinois whose voice was weighted so strongly in polls that his votes were actually 300 times greater than the least weighted vote.
We need a suite of “HIPAA/FOIA”-inspired bills that radically shift power over private/financial details and information security with these changes:

- decommodify personal details by making them illegal to resell or distribute without permission

- restore individual control: require giving distribution and update/modify/delete rights back to the individual

- mandatory incident reporting requirements with personal criminal liabilities to executives for failing to disclose breaches

- mandatory compensation, determined by independent government risk management, to customers based on the expectation of risk incurred plus insurance against losses for 5 years

- ensure minimum security requirements, similar to PCI-DSS, by formation of a federal information security standards agency that produces practical, effective configuration and architectural standards and collects external/internal audits and conducts spot-check compliance audits similar to the IRS for taxes

- institute an opt-in national identity virtual & physical card with provably secure public/private key management, open-source infrastructure that isn’t based on social security numbers. Perhaps managed by a non-profit which includes security researchers and consumer advocates, with industry advisers with less power.

- phase out use of social security numbers as a primary key, eventually making it illegal to use and require a unique identifier generated for each service by previous system that is not shared by any other system. To connect two identifiers requires the person’s approval, the person can change their per-service identifier at any time and it changes once per year anyhow
Economics is not the only relevant domain for public policy.

Just because someone is confident in their opinion doesn't mean they're knowledgable, surely you see that regularly online. Economists are not especially self-aware or more humble than other people.

Here's an ignorant comment: "Net neutrality is a fiction. Hire Akamai (et al.) to mirror your servers worldwide to speed content to your users." Using Akamai isn't going to do shit if Comcast decides your videos are hurting their cable TV business and start dropping packets, or set a data cap that counts your traffic while they zero rate their own competing product.

Another one: "If all qualities sell at the same price, markets cannot allocate quality efficiently. Works for soap, wine, and haircuts; why not Internet?" ISPs do not operate in a market, consumers have little to no choice amongst providers. ISPs provide a service, not a good like soap or wine; haircuts are a service but have nothing in common with Internet access, you can cut your own hair but you can't make your own Internet.

Obama installed the Republican nominee since the FCC can't have more than 3 comissioners from the same political party (thus there's always a 2v3 balance).

How long intermittent fasts should last
As an independent agency, the FCC is required to have two members from a minority party, and when a spot opens up, a new member is traditionally given to the President by the minority party. (Pai was Mitch McConnell's choice.)
> But this is ignoring the whole debate: proponents of net freedom don't consider fast lanes to be a problem.

I think that this is the part that I can't comprehend. The railroads misbehaved so badly that the government had to break rail transportation as an industry to kill them. Ninety years later we're still using long-haul semi trailers for everything. Bell's abuse of its monopoly was similarly severe. How do people hold this belief without becoming laughingstock?
Where by “people” you probably mean the lobbyists from Google/Facebook/Netflix and other internet companies who would have to share a fraction of their fat profit margins to deliver their stuff to you.

As the present predicament shows “advice of the people” means jack squat to the FCC, just like it did in 2015.
This is not about liberalism or conservativism at all. It would be lovely if the current Republican party was about conservativism. This is not about political philosophy, this is about party and who exercises power in those parties.
China has net neutrality. You are quite naive if you think NN is a solution to censorship. Browse eff.org for more than a few minutes to see that NN doesn't even scratch the surface of underlying issues. I don't want NN because then everyone will think the internet is just fine, when NN is a joke of a solution that doesn't even cover anything more than the FTC already covers.
Rust also has a much nicer package ecosystem. It's pretty trivial to wrap existing C libraries as well so I find that I can get up and running much faster rather than messing around with makefiles.
I think you're right in a lot of ways, but that doesn't change what is happening and the best option doesn't always win.
