I am one of the brighter minds on the forum
I can agree with that. That's why I feel sorry you couldn't finalize the collaboration with the Gadgetcoin developers. They aren't in your level terms of knowledge nor in communicating ideas, but they have the very same libertarian, open source idealism as yourself.
However, TPTB shouldn't fear me, because I am not going to do anything illegal.
The government doesn't see this way. They will take you out in the Philippines within a heartbeat if you are a really danger to TPTB.
Also for those who don't fully grasp my economics point, the point is that if we try to force ISPs to give away bandwidth for free, then we in effect socialize ISPs. And then the government can step in with Net Neutrality taxation to make it "fair" by compensating some ISPs for others or what (but in essence what we have done is attempted to steal and thus the government is called upon to take over and steal from all of us). We are fucking idiots!
Why the taxation is necessary and why are you talking about this? Don't ISPs charge for the service and therefore we pay for the bandwidth already? My understanding is that the taxation is considered because certain service providers like Netflix generate extra profit on the backbone of the internet infrastructure which is operated by ISPs, and those ISPs don't get a share from Netflix's profit. Sorry, I am sure you are correct, and I just try to get my head around of what you are talking about.
P2P can not be a bandwidth driven paradigm! Fuhgeddaboudit.
Are you saying P2P will only work if it requires a little bandwidth, because larger bandwidth usage will trigger taxation and other measures? Again, I am not disagreeing, I just want to understand what you are saying. Thanks!
