It\u2019s really been &#8220;unremarkable,&#8221; this year without net neutrality. Yet Bernie Sanders &#8220;warned that losing net neutrality would threaten representative government. GLAAD feared gays and lesbians would be targeted&#8221; without net neutrality. &#8220;Planned Parenthood weighed in&#8221; and said they were threatened if net neutrality went away.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-288270 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/ZZ-APP-Rush-Data-Blu-BW-001.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/ZZ-APP-Rush-Data-Blu-BW-001.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/ZZ-APP-Rush-Data-Blu-BW-001-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><br \/>\nBut &#8220;[a] new report by Ookla, a sister company to PC Magazine,&#8221; they do speed tests and so forth, &#8220;shows that download speeds&#8221; of the internet, on average nationwide &#8220;have increased 35.8% across the country&#8221; since net neutrality bit the dust. &#8220;The fastest Internet is actually in Kansas City,&#8221; and the reason is that\u2019s where they\u2019ve installed more Google Fiber than anywhere else. Google Fiber\u2019s gigabit internet, and it\u2019s wicked fast, and they\u2019re slowly rolling it out. I think it\u2019s actually stopped the rollouts. It kind of stopped. It turned out to be more expensive than Google imagined.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-295000\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/APP-121818-Internet-Speeds.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/APP-121818-Internet-Speeds.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/APP-121818-Internet-Speeds-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/>But net neutrality is dead and the free market&#8230; By the way, the carriers have not put limits on people.

Every pixel and every gigabyte, every terabyte will be treated equally. What a bunch of absolute crock! There\u2019s no way to do that anyway. Anyway, it\u2019s better.
