Why did you feel the need to post this weird piece of NN propaganda in a completely unrelated thread?

It seems related to me.

Could you help explain why? I really don't see any connection between NN and this story.

I understand that NN is an important issue for the BigCos employing many HN users, but I'm not really convinced we need their talking points to be brought up in every single vaguely network related thread.

Ok, so it's tangentially related. Even though it was meant in satire, it seems like something that a big telco would try to do.

You're right, sorry about that. Won't happen again. Not satire.

  weird piece of NN propaganda

The irony of the internet ruining itself in a single comment.

I’m not sure that it is pro-NN propaganda, since it implies that some traffic should have priority.

(FWIW, I don’t think you should be downvoted for objecting to the tangent.)

I don't really care if it's pro or against, both sides are primarily pushed by corporate stooges.

Despite the huge push by ISPs and massive media companies like Google, FB and Amazon, this stuff isn't actually really relevant to normal people.

The conversation surrounding NN has been totally poisoned by corporate interests, even here you constantly see comments suggesting that the internet will be destroyed without NN regulations.
