Brendan Carr being in charge of the FCC. What does that mean to pirates and going forward? - eviltoast

Going to be interesting times, in a bad way. Everyone knows now in the US the newly appointed FCC chairman is going to be Brendan Carr, who is against the idea of Net Neutrality so we expect that to go away again similarly to how Ajit Pai got rid of it when he was around.

Should anyone be worried about what this guy can do? Will he carry on the fight for entertainment industry’s interests?

Okay, can we focus on the subject matter instead of just devolving it into a stupid meme and treating this platform like it’s reddit? Come on, grow up and I’ve blocked half of you already.

    Torrents are always better because they don’t cost the open source projects anything to host. Direct downloads are expensive relatively speaking for server bandwidth/cdn costs, while torrents can be distributed by the community.
