but there is a problem with that. I understand accelerationism, but its not always the right thing to do. If people do not understand what the problem really is, and the lack of freedom stops them from finding out. They might not change anything.

that is a good point, and I do agree net neutrality is important for freedom. My trip is that laws seem necessary. They build on each other. Freedom of speech is useless without protection from murder, Enron and ecoli. The government does an OK to shitty job at this but who else would pay a utility regulator such as the one who are supposed to monitor internet speeds.
you are assuming that a market system would still exist without a government. Capitalism literally can not exist without the government protecting it. So nobody would need to pay a utility regulator, because they wouldn't need to exist.
I am not assuming that at all. We are somewhat in agreement. I don't think the internet could exist without capitalism. If capitalism could not exist without government then the internet could not exist (with any reasonable quality)without government. It would be like setting up the internet at a Rainbow Gathering. Without the internet people would organize like ants to put something together and regulate it and all of the other nouns that people want.
originally it was created by the gov for the military. Capitalism is only the main reason the military existed.
Stuff like economic calculation works extreme well. I forgot the country, but it went down to 10-15% of its trucks and was still able to supply the majority of the country with the resources it needed.
So are you are down for a 15% loss in internet speed? What if the internet did not exist because we got rid of the gov/capital/military back in the 20's. What if we get rid of them now and we never get the thing that replaces the internet.
The internet started as a killing machine like all other military crap and now its used to subvert the same government that paid for it! What if the next thing is even better at toppling regimes then this 2.0 shit we have now.
actually it would be 10-20x faster
I was comparing the trucks to the internet, with fewer truck needs where met but it was slower right?
