Has anyone mentioned yet how our schools and education will be affected without net neutrality?

Think about schools who already have ridiculously low budgets that have to stop using important and useful sites on the internet because they can’t afford it.

Think about schools that CAN afford it, but have students who can’t access their work at home and struggle to keep good grades because of it.

Think about college students who struggle to even keep their apartments and get food on the table who suddenly can’t afford to access sites they need for their classes.

I’m no professional on this stuff. I don’t know exactly how it would work for education, but either way the removal of net neutrality is going to negatively affect everyone (except your service providers).

Who wants to bet the ‘factual’ sites schools will be able to use that can’t afford better service aren’t really that factual and fit the ones that have money’s needs.

Sorry, I don’t take chump bets.

(that is, it’s a certainty)
