   In Poland, they do not have anything like Net Neutrality. They don’t even have an agency equivalent to the FCC.

   Because of this, the ISP’s are afraid to jack up prices or throttle speeds. With the drop of a hat, some entrepreneur will start up an ISP and steal their business. Poland does not have mega providers, but rather thousands of small providers. Some of their ISP’s only serve a street or small neighborhood. An average package costs about #54 LPN ($13 USD) and provides 100mb download, 10mb upload, and 120 HD cable television channels, with no limits and no throttling down.

   If you want fast reliable internet, shut down the FCC and allow competition to provide it. Stop allowing the FCC to create monopolies.

   If you’re referring to the comedian-wannabe Conan O’Brien, if he’s willing to open up his chest cavity and hold it out for me, I’m willing to spray-paint it purple for him.
