#thanksrobbie: Comcast, Cox, Frontier All Raising Internet Access Rates for 2018

[Rochard]

And thus it begins... Just days after the FCC killed net neutrality three large cable companies announced price hikes for Internet..... This is just the start. I wonder if within the next year we'll be paying more through our cable companies in order to access Netflix.

Oh without doubt.... They are saying what - thirteen million Americans will lose healthcare?

#winning

[Wilbo]

They raise their rates all the time. Who is to blame for the 20 times my internet bill has gone up in the last 20 years?

[Tasty1]

still a lot cheaper than i have to pay in third world countries. I pay 50 USD only for internet, for 5mb, when it was working, i was happy if i got 2mb.

[Google Expert]

Here's hoping it kills cam sites and tubes, and brings back legit paysites.

[Bladewire]

I've posted on here at least 50 TIMES the last 2 months that my rates are skyrocketing in January Where I live we only have Cox as an option and will pay for internet only what we used to pay for the premium cix bundle that had movie channels, unlimited internet, cable & phone.

The foreign Trump supporter fake nics here love this because they hate Americans & American cultures so bad news for us makes them happy & they'll defend it with some stupid bullshit excuse.

as if they didn't already go up tenfold with Obamacare...

[Rochard]

as if they didn't already go up tenfold with Obamacare...

My healthcare went down under Obamacare. It's been great. I have Kaiser here in California.

[windstorm]

I live in Europe and I pay $10 for 1000 Mbps line. Thumbs up for the free market in USA!

[The Porn Nerd]

The fun part? Revenue for adult webmasters will go....wait for it, wait for it....DOWN DOWN DOWN.

I love idiots who support cutting their own throats.

GFED can't afford Obamacare on his Obama government assistance pay, so he votes GOPP so it's all taken away and he can blame Obama

You are a fake nick. You signed up in 2006, less than 2k posts, no sig file... No one knows who you are. But yet suddenly you have to speak up in a political post. Sure sure.

My internet is free, btw.

[Robbie]

What a dumbass thing to do Rochard.

Put my name in a post to attack me? Okay.

By the way...these price hikes were announced a few months ago BEFORE the regulations were taken down.
Here is an article from back in October:

Get ready for home internet prices to double ? BGR

Of course facts have no bearing on your stupid bullshit. But congrats!

[Robbie]

Oh and here is a forum with people discussing the 2017 PRICE HIKE from Comcast back in February.

Wow, you sure are ignorant.

Yeah the resident GFY fake nic alt-right hate troll gets a bit psycho during the holidays. Nobody loves him so he lashes out in hate via his fake nics.

A) Yes, what a dumb ass thing to do. I called you out. It won't be the first time. You are the one who said you voted for Trump, and you are the one who said you would vote for him again. So from now on any time Trump does something dumb I'll just say "#thanksrobbie".

B) Yes, I'm sure they announced the price hikes months ago. You know, Trump is in office. They knew months ago Trump and his team was going to kill net neutrality. Why do they have to raise prices Robbie? They are going to pay a lot less in taxes and have a lot less regulations. They should be swimming in money.

Trump is ridiculous. We had a train crash the other day and Trump blamed our "crumbling infrastructure". It was a refurbished track that cost us $181 MILLION - and it was the first time they used it. If only we had some regulations in place to ensure these things are properly tested, or regulations about requirements for automatic speed control. Nah, fuck it. Regulations aren't good, they impede businesses.

I'm going to blame all of this on you Robbie.

[Rochard]

Wow, you sure are ignorant.

My lord, stop calling me names.

[RyuLion]

What does Robbie have to do with that?

The sky is falling because some ISP raised their rates by a few bucks, so let's drag colleagues name through the mud, it's all Robbie's fault!

My wife's Blue Cross / Blue Shield family health insurance rate will double January 1st, 2018. Thanks Republicans and tRump the orange moron. Winning, except no we're not. Stupid fucks. If you voted for tRump you are a fucking dumb ass ignorant shit heel fucktard asshat.

This is just the beginning. The ISPs will increase our rates - and then charge us extra for Netflix.

Why do they need to charge us more? Trump is loosening regulations and cutting their taxes; They should be swimming in money.

And yes, I do blame Robbie. I blame everyone who voted for Trump.

[ErectMedia]

Here's hoping it kills cam sites and tubes, and brings back legit paysites.

I was thinking that a few weeks ago.

[crockett]

What does Robbie have to do with that?

Robbie has blamed everything under the sun on Obama long as it's bad for 8 years. Robbie claimed he only blamed Obama because he was the acting potus so everything was his fault.

Fast forward to now, Trump's potus, Robbie gives free pass on everything Trump does and blames all Trump fuck ups on Obama or the Fake news media.
So now it's #thanksRobbie time.

[OneHungLo]

They raise rates every stinking year so i'm not sure what this has to do with trump.

If you have known for 2 months, I guess it has nothing to do with the repeal of Net Neutrality

Lemme see if I have this right......

The left complains about a $3 price increase that was planned months ago..

.. and it's all Robbie's fault.

Rochard, they have therapists that can treat your Trump Derangement Syndrome

Amazing that you can blame Trump when he is absolutely correct.

I'm going to blame all of this on you Robbie.

Good...you can do it in person in Vegas.

[abshard]

Been with cox for 10 years, they have raised rates couple dollars every year since I have been using them

[baddog]

Good...you can do it in person in Vegas.

Like that will happen.

[Rochard]

What the hell does net neutrality have to do with a standard price increase on a service? ISPs are free to change their prices whenever they want.

Now they are free to do whatever the hell they please.

How can ANYONE in our industry be for this?

[abshard]

So was it illegal when they raised my rates last year?

[Robbie]

How can ANYONE in our industry be for this?

Has ANYONE in "our industry" (I'm in the porn biz by the way) said they were "for" it?
Or are you just acting like a jerk and attacking anyone who questions what the effects of a regulation that was only 2 years old has or hasn't had anyway.

I've pointed out facts to you:
1. In the past couple of years there apparently are LESS ISP's available in markets (less competition)
2. The internet was doing great BEFORE "net neutrality" 2 years ago, great DURING it, and will continue to do great now that a regulation that was only 2 years old is now gone.
3. Federal agencys shouldn't have the power of Congress. Only Congress should be making Federal Law...Agencys are creating regulations that have just as much power as law. You said that my thinking on that was a "Republican talking point" (after telling me earlier that this issue isn't "political")

You are stepping way over the line with me. I have no idea what you think this is going to accomplish for you. But I don't think it's gonna end up exactly the way you think it is.

[baddog]

My lord, stop calling me names.

Making an observation is not calling you names.

Saying you are ignorant is an observation. Calling you dumbass is calling you names.

Robbie, Rochard -

You're both awesome people. No need to argue especially about this stuff.

Merry Christmas.

I agree about that. But now he is saying that he is going to put up posts with my name every time HE doesn't like what Trump says or does?

Fuck that. That's trying to fuck with my business. I take that very personally and very seriously.

[2MuchMark]

Maybe today, but tomorrow you'll probably feel better.

Do what I do - go pickup a guitar, turn your amp to 11, and go nuts for a while. Works for me every time. \m/

FYI, I received my letter from Comcast before the vote took place.
