H.R. 5273

Would this bill stop spamming?

no, spammers have lots of time, they don't need to pay for prioritized
service.  your spam may just be a bit more "outdated" without this bill.

the fear is that AT&T, COMCAST, etc can make their competators websites
slower and play with things that have been pretty much left alone.  I doubt
they'd do it anyway because playing with quality of service costs a lot of
money.

I'm personally more worried about AT&T being in the back pocket of the CIA
at this point (or vice versa)

But I think this bill is worth supporting.

Kid Porno?

if child porn operators can pay for the service you'll get your kiddy porn
at amazingly fast speeds

These are things I could do without...
