THE SENATE HAS JUST VOTED TO REVERSE A LANDMARK RULE COVERING
YOU AND INTERNET PRIVACY.
THESE
RULES THAT WERE IMPLEMENTED BY THE FCC LAST YEAR THAT WOULD
ALLOW YOU TO FEEL MORE AT EASE REGARDING THE SEARCHES YOU ARE
DOING AND DATA INTERNET SERVICE PROVIDERS COMPILE ABOUT YOU.
THEY WANT TO COLLECT YOUR DATA
AND USE IT FOR ADVERTISERS.
THE FCC REALIZED THIS IS PROBLEMATIC
AND SO THEY IMPLEMENTED RULES TO PROTECT YOUR PRIVACY.
REPUBLICANS IN CONGRESS DON'T
LIKE THOSE RULES, AS A RESULT THE SENATE HAS JUST REVERSED
THEM.
>>GREAT, IF YOU WANTED YOUR PRIVACY INVADED AS A
LIBERTARIAN, CONGRATULATIONS.
SO YOU WANT TO DO PRIVACY ONLINE,
SORRY NOT GOING TO GET IT BECAUSE CORPORATIONS CAN MAKE AN
EXTRA BUCK OFF OF IT.
SAD DAY.
>>ANOTHER THING TO KEEP IN MIND, WASHINGTON POST REPORTS THIS.
AS
WE ALL KNOW THAT IS AN EVER-GROWING PROBLEM WITH THE
INTERNET AND HACKERS MANAGING TO OBTAIN OUR CREDIT CARD
INFORMATION.
BUT HEY, WHO CARES ABOUT CONSUMER PROTECTION, THE
TRUMP ADMINISTRATION IS IN POWER
RIGHT NOW AND REPUBLICANS, AND THEY ARE PRO-BUSINESS THEY WOULD
RATHER SIDE WITH INTERNET SERVICE PROVIDERS AS OPPOSED TO
YOU AND YOUR PRIVACY RIGHTS.
>>AND THEY ALWAYS HIDE BEHIND SMALL BUSINESS.
THEY ARE IN
FAVOR OF GIANT BUSINESS.
THE INTERNET SERVICE PROVIDERS ARE
ABOUT AS LARGE A COMPANY YOU CAN
FIND IN THE WORLD.
IF THEY CAN MAKE AN EXTRA BUCK BY MAKING
THEIR SECURITY A LITTLE LESS, THEY WILL MAKE AN EXTRA BUCK.
IT
WAS NICE TO HAVE SOME
PROTECTIONS GONE.
BUT GRATUITOUSLY ALLOWING THEM TO
LOWER SECURITY AND HAVE HACKERS HAVE BETTER ACCESS IS
GOING A
BIT TOO FAR.
THEY DON'T GIVE A DAMN ABOUT YOU.
A LOT OF PEOPLE
STILL DON'T GET IT.
REPUBLICANS
WORK FOR BIG BUSINESS.
IF YOU THINK TRUMP WASN'T A STANDARD
REPUBLICAN YOU HAVE ANOTHER
THING COMING TO YOU.
HE IS WALLOWED IN THAT SWAMP.
>> HE IS THE SWAMP.
HE LOVES THE SYSTEM.
WHAT WOULD MAKE ANYONE
THINK HE IS GOING TO LOOK OUT
FOR THE LITTLE GUY.
