bandwidth
I don't know about you guys, but I like to play games online. In some games, it is the only reason to play. Do you love your online gaming, your World of Warcraft, First person shooters, all the games you can play with your friends from far away, It's something that allows you to meet new people and all that wholesome goodness. It's also a place where you can destroy your enemies in online competition and belittle them with a good teabag, if your into that sort of thing. Now the problem becomes this, Will you still have the ability to play these games If many of the big ISP's get there way. Comcast, Verizon, and others are trying to get a bill passed to put bandwidth caps on there services. so that means you can only use a certain limited amount of the internet. If these caps are put in place, it would make online gaming pretty much impossible, your downloads would go slow and your internet time would be limited. What it comes down to, is bullshit. They don't have the right to do things like this. So what are you gonna do when you one day find that your not able to connect to battle.net or another game server, because it exceeds your bandwidth limit, or even some websites. Are you gonna be pissed, I'm guessing you will be. In fact, I'm guessing you will be asking yourself, What the fuck is going on? That is because you don't know what is going on in your prefered entertainment industry. Even though reading about game politics might piss you off, you should still do it, just to know the current state of your prefered passtime. Keeping track of people like Jack Thompson and the like just makes you more aware of what is going on, even if it does have the ability to incite rage in gamers across the world. Oh, and even though it's a little late, the fact that Jack Thompson got humiliated by Take 2, and then disbarred, makes me a very happy person, and it's hilarious.
