Net neutrality

About the previous post, on Twitter they report this to me:

What do you want me to tell you? The signal is clear: in principle, if you are interested in non-network-oriented access, you would have to change the provider, but of course there is nothing to guarantee that other network operators will not filter the contents themselves. Even if in a less blatant and gaudy way than what happens on traditional media, whose target remains housewives and politicians (two professions that leave little time for reflection, I can affirm this from the direct experience of both!), It also remains true on social media that your world is still a representation of them. It would be good to never forget it, not only when I'm so naïve as to make you understand!

We could also try to give the "Anti-Discrimination Commission" a chance by verifying that it has summoned the infrastructure managers, and if not by asking them to summon them to give us information on how they understand net neutrality (the most malicious of you may imply that for a Presidential Commission de facto PD the fact that an MP from the League is silenced is more of an opportunity than a problem, and once I would have thought so too, but by entering politics you learn to lay down certain retro thoughts, which do not lead to nothing, and to accumulate facts, which remain).

And then there is time.

You just have to resist, you have to be stubborn, you have to have a hard head, just like facts do. I am aware of your urgencies, which are also mine, otherwise I would not be here with you, but, as you know, we have only two certainties: death, and taxes.

I deal with taxes.

(… obviously, as long as you give me with your vote, and Matteo, with his trust, will give me the opportunity to take care of it. Then I'll take care of other things, I don't lack interests …)
