[uh-oh]

lets say worst case scenario right

comcast/spectrum/verizon/whatever internet provider decides to make youtube.com a part of a special package. to view youtube you need to pay 10 dollars more a month.

that seems shitty.

but it would also lead to other sites becoming bigger right. vimeo might be free, and could advertise that. also ISP's could become more competitive maybe? like maybe at&t or some company that has high speed internet, just not AS fast, like 15 mb/s down speeds, is 30 bucks a month, but you can view everything. meanwhile comcast or some fiber company can give you ridiculous download speeds, but they also want to charge you extra for using such and such

i dunno, it would suck for sure, but in all honesty i think a company like google/youtube would be easier to reason with, than the FCC lol. if people started boycotting their sites because they sell out for pay to use packages, we'd probably have more success than trying to get anything done through a governmental agency

but im a nerd who thinks there should be no FCC, and as little government regulations as possible.

but like i stated earlier in the thread im not sure how any of this works
