A Quote by Ted Cruz

Net Neutrality' is Obamacare for the Internet; the Internet should not operate at the speed of government. — © Ted Cruz
Net Neutrality' is Obamacare for the Internet; the Internet should not operate at the speed of government.
After President Obama announced his support for net neutrality yesterday, Texas Senator Ted Cruz tweeted that 'Net neutrality is Obamacare for the Internet.' While Ted Cruz continues to be the Taylor Swift of not getting over Obamacare.
Net neutrality is such an important principle for the Web and for the Internet. It's how the Internet's operated for all this time.
I know that there is a near unanimous view in Congress that state or local taxes on Internet access would directly deter the ability of consumers to obtain and utilize the Internet. If that is an accepted premise, as it should be, the same concept should apply to the net neutrality debate and its certainty to increase consumer bills.
Net neutrality isn't a government takeover of the Internet, as many of my Republican colleagues have alleged.
Net neutrality is a big deal to the left because it puts the government in charge of the internet. It puts the government in charge of content. It lets the government choose what you can watch and what you can't watch and what you pay for it. And that's bogus. In the name of competition, they want to take competition away from the net. They're leftists. They lie to you about what they want to do.
The FCC sided with the public and adopted extremely strong net neutrality rules that should be a global model for Internet freedom.
Net Neutrality is Internet freedom.
The nature of the Internet and the importance of net neutrality is that innovation can come from everyone.
Net Neutrality is what makes the Internet so great - and so vital for innovation and creativity.
Net neutrality has been in place since the very beginning of the Internet.
Net Neutrality - a guiding principle of the Internet since its beginning - means that content is all treated equally.
Without net neutrality protections, the Internet would no longer be a free and open ecosystem for innovation.
If we didn't have Net neutrality, carriers could do things like penalize companies that use a lot of bandwidth or create high-speed lanes and charge Internet companies extra fees to send their stuff over them. That would give an advantage to big companies and make life harder for startups.
My belief is that there will be very large numbers of Internet-enabled devices on the Net - home appliances, office equipment, things in the car and maybe things that you carry around. And since they're all on the Internet and Internet-enabled, they'll be manageable through the network, and so we'll see people using the Net and applications on the Net to manage their entertainment systems, manage their, you know, office activities and maybe even much of their social lives using systems on the Net that are helping them perform that function.
Net neutrality is the right thing for our democracy, economy, and global competitiveness. And Americans support an open Internet.
Everyone should be concerned about Internet anarchy in which anybody can pretend to be anybody else, unless something is done to stop it. If hoaxes like this go unchecked, who can believe anything they see on the Internet? What good would the Internet be then? If the people who control Internet web sites do not do anything, is that not an open invitation for government to step in? And does anybody want politicians to control what can go on the Internet?
