Internet, serious business. Kill or be killed.

I haven't seen this on these forums yet, so here goes:

VirginMedia wants to turn the Internet into a TVChannel, where you pay for what you get. I won't type a crappy forum essay this time, as you can read about it on the site ^

I hardly think a website like that will stop them. In any case i think that they are a load of bollocks.

It's having "layers" of the internet.  For a premium fee, you would get access to all the top line shit, depending on the ISP and their contracts with other net businesses.  This is a simplified view of the actual plan. 

Net Neutrality is what we have now.  Here's a little video about it. http://www.publicknowledge.org/node/307

No, 4 chan are the ones that really have no great significance.  Virgin has the money to do whatever they want.

You clearly have not seen them in action. They are, indeed, hackers on steroids.

They are a large group of trolls with the ability to achieve certain goals.

They have all different intarweb scum, not just trolls. They have trolls, "cyber-terrorists", child molesters, cancer, and win. Mostly cancer, however.

They have a bunch of free time, and way too much access to the internet.  And probably a Cheetos addiction.
