Good, it was a fix for a problem that didn't exist. Internet was fine before 2015 and didn't need Government regulation over some possible scenario that didn't exist.

My ISP is in Thailand. The government determines what you can do or not. It is why VPNs are popular here. This is the pirate capital of the world. You can't buy a shirt here without it being a knock off. Latest release movies on DVD for 4 bucks. Why would I bother downloading.

And DTM I don't have the inclination to go through all your posts complaining about blocking sites etc. But you are gulity as charged.
