>>34470415obvious bait, but lemme find a thing to copy+paste
2005 - Madison River Communications was blocking VOIP services. The FCC put a stop to it.
2005 - Comcast was denying access to p2p services without notifying customers.
2005, AT&T suggested giving preferential treatment to some web giants in exchange for money, starting the whole thing.
2007-2009 - AT&T was having Skype and other VOIPs blocked because they didn't like there was competition for their cellphones.
2011 - MetroPCS tried to block all streaming except youtube. Proceeded to sue the FCC over this.
2011-2013, AT&T, Sprint, and Verizon were blocking access to Google Wallet because it competed with their bullshit. edit: this one happened literally months after the trio were busted collaborating with Google to block apps from the android marketplace
2012, Verizon was demanding google block tethering apps on android because it let owners avoid their $20 tethering fee. This was despite guaranteeing they wouldn't do that as part of a winning bid on an airwaves auction. Fined $1.25 million for this.
2012, AT&T - tried to block access to FaceTime unless customers paid more money.
2013, Verizon literally stated that the only thing stopping them from favoring some content providers over other providers were the net neutrality rules in place.
2014, Verizon and Comcast throttled Netflix data and held those customers hostage to a huge bribe from Netflix.
the fcc was in a huge neutral area where nothing was really set up pre-2014, so it could protect a non-existent net neutrality without problems. the creation of the law for net neutrality allowed them to do this without any ambiguity, and now it's being removed, protection against the events occurring pre-2014 is impossible
