This video was completely unrealistic. There were no disruptive ads, no "your meal is poisoned, get a free tox-scan" warning, no needless pausing of the waiter as he was just about to set their food down, no "your table must be upgraded in order to eat this meal"... :p
+The Pope Problem is that in many markets in the US there is, simply, no competition. In many others there is, but only in the form of a duopoly, where both companies are about equally bad. So as much fun as it would be to see them drive around desperately looking for a new restaurant to try, or to find one and have them be just as bad, I think it would be repetitive. This one video is plenty.
+ The Pope The ones people keep mentioning but never listing. The fact is that not being able to extort people for money to use services properly costs them money. That's probably what people mean.
Yeti just ate a hamster topped with shit and piss also sitting down fee, leaving fee, fee fee, Drinking fee, taking a sip fee, taking a bite fee, and clothing fee
The waiter should have told them after one hour that a priority customer just ordered the same as them - and will get the food first. Unless they pay a priority fee that overrides the priority of the new customer.
It reminds me a SpongeBob SquarePants where squidward was holding a bill listing of all basic human (actually sea creatures) thing does by instinct. Might as well be charged for even touching the door handle to the exit
blackholeproductions same here! The guys who put this together are amazing and talented people. I'm happy I got to act in it as well as becoming more involved in future videos. Glad you liked it!
Mulinaster thats because the isps were abiding fairly before nn unofficially until they began to block and throttle sites and services which forced obama and the fcc to make it official to stop this. If u want the internet to be like cable thats ur agenda but the rest of us prefer nn to stand.
MikeyGeess And the Chicken Nation Ajit Pai will probably take one look at it with that creepy ass grin before taking an exaggerated sip from his stupid reeses puffs mug
+Scooter Doo But it isn't! That's what will happen if Net Neutrality is to be repealed and we have to pay for services that were free to begin with. The big companies have been lobbying for years making sure they have control over what we, the people, choose to browse. What Net Neutrality does is give them the middle finger. Imagine if the FCC got its way and NN was repealed? Imagine we have to pay to go on TH-cam, certain news sites, or other internet services including dare I say it, porn. (TH-cam does have features which are unlocked by subscription, but the preposition of paying to access even the original free features) That $60/month fee that you pay to your ISP to have internet can stack up to the hundreds just so that you can access everything that you want on the same speed as you had before. What this video is satirically portraying is that future. Seared Salmon in a Minneapolis restaurant cost what, $17? Then you have bullshit such as a $29 gutting fee, a $9 transport fee and $19 river water fee and a $39 free range fee. Then you could hear the the distinct disdain in the waiter's voice when he says that "[she] could get it from somewhere else" after the woman changing her request to have just pepperoni pizza. A direct reference to the ISP companies dictating what you can or cannot have. The two hour wait was relating to the potential throttling your ISP can impose on your accessing to the things that you want. Preparing the pizza takes like what, 15-25 minutes supposedly? Well, she's going to have pay more to get it delivered in that time. Yes you can "leave", but then what? You can't simply change restaurants when every one of them could be of the same dictatorship disposition: that only they choose what you can or can't have to eat. You don't really understand net neutrality, yet you feel like you have the audacity to cast judgement on this video as "retarded" when you yourself fails to read between the lines and perceive the very dangers the repeal poses. Get the fuck off your high horse and do a bit of homework before you can even consider to criticise the legitimacy of videos such as this one!

NerdyNinja because it is very wrong. Even TH-cam who likes to put liberal videos on the top knows that this is kinda pathetic. There's something called the free market and capitalism. Look it up
This was great😂 it honestly made me laugh and it was really good, the lighting was great, the acting was amazing, the overall cinematography was superb. Keep it up!
Sounds like life. Maybe if we moved into a company town we would be used to this kind of life.. No raise, increased rent, coming into work early so the prep work for our job can be done off the clock. Vacations, paid vacation? You must be crazy. As for health care the company pays. Your arm was amputated because it was determined the cost of treating that hangnail was more than the charges for amputation. By the way, you will need to return to work. You will be allowed to sit in the break room until the end of your scheduled shift. We don’t want your amputated arm to be a loss of work incident.
You mean like in 2010 when Comcast charged customers for internet access and then charged Netflix on the other end to allow their content to be allowed full speed? Think about it. Who is going to be paying for all these added fees in the end? What if Wal-Mart got to add a fee to trucks carrying Amazon.com goods if they came to certain neighborhoods near to Wal-Mart stores?
Free market fails on basic services. Not enough competition to carry out to the smaller markets even though "everyone agrees" that high-speed internet access is needed for maintaining even basic education. There has never been competition in my area. Never will be. People can shill for Comcast and At&t all they want, it will not make a free market enable a business to realistically enter into competition with those juggernauts. Moreso when they can alter legislation when it suits them.
Try not to assume I read whatever crap you think I do, insulting the intelligence of the next two (or is it three now?) generations certainly doesn't gain you any credibility, nor does it make you sound intelligent, it just makes you sound like an ass. Just because socialism doesn't work on any level does not automatically mean that full on capitalism works on every level either, and spouting off your "leftists are losers, righty's might is right" just makes you sound as crazy as they do. With that kind of zeal, one can only ask, how much are they paying you to comment on these videos with your "the sky isn't falling" rhetoric? Seriously.. they are going that far in damage control now? Since you decided to bring politics into it, the FCC removing Title 2 protection may be the first real step in marching the country into Fascism. Well done, Gentile would have been proud. The worst part is, a huge swath of the country will march into it, flags waving high, proud to do so, behind their proud donkey, completely not understanding where they are heading to. The 2020s may be a stark remembrance to the 1920s, only in America instead of Europe, with the National Socialists played by a "democratic" government who is your "family", who only wants to take care of you like a good family should. "Establishing the doomsday monopoly..." It's already established... In fact, it's one merger away. All they have to do is get the right merger through the cracks. Or did they already? Consumer backlash is certainly a market control. I hope they choke on it.
Lol, nice. Attack! Good job. I'm sure you feel better now. Take care, take a hike, do whatever. I'm not going to waste any more time on you, you've already proven you cannot hold to the conversation, but only go on to attack someone on every single response. You may want to go have that aggressiveness checked yourself.
shiba plays the plan is to start putting more videos on here pretty regularly. I hope to have a part in it every chance I get. If you haven't yet, subscribe to this channel and watch new videos when they come out
Bro you're just a tad short of 100k hate to break it to ya... more like 800... you were wrong. Just like the video is wrong in.... pretty much perfectly everything :) the internet hasn't ended or even realy changed that much.
Yeah, sorry to inform you but this is actually already a thing elsewhere in the world. I know for a fact that in some parts of northern Italy, you are separately charged for the silverware, glasses, napkins, water, tables and chairs...
Actually, I *highly* reccomend visiting Venice and Verona, some of the most beautiful and culturally rich cities in Italy, just be sure to bring your own lunch, or buy some sandwiches in some bakery ;)
theredraccoondog is correct, and that is the case for around 80% of the US, we only have one choice of ISP, if we dont like it, we dont get net . . . nice try tho
Net Neutrality is extremely important and this video is hilarious... but this is an absolutely piss-poor metaphor for how Net Neutrality works. Extra/Hidden fees and packages are just a tiny fraction of a non-regulated internet - this shows a childish understanding of the issue. If they wanted to keep the metaphor the charges would be up-front but there would only be two restaurants in town and they'd both be the same. Then the food on the menu would come out at totally different times and qualities based on how much the restaurant supported the food and/or the particular chef who made it. The waiter would constantly be letting them know all of this, and trying to get them to order the "Resteraunt's Choice" dishes, and the chefs would have to bribe the restaurant with money simply to _work_ there. Sure that would be a more complicated video, but it would make a lot more sense and actually address some of the problems at play. ISPs have been using mandatory hidden fees for years, and Net Neutrality can't stop that. The throttling and monopolizing is the actual issue. Fees are just one small result of that.
Wow just a great video, good job, very surprised this is coming from a channel with so little subscribers, but a true hidden gem indeed, hope you get the amount of subscribers you deserve because this is simply a masterpiece.
not yet, but only because there is a elay between the vote (happened) and the changes going into effect (a few month from now) Unless congress/courts stop it, it will then (probably slowly) move towards "this". I think it was AT&T who will have to wait a bit more befor it can implement such changes, since it is disallowed by contract to block/throttle/make such packages until june(?). Then again, the fact, that such provisions had to be put into the contract in the first place, tells you what the ISPs will do once they are allowed to.
I get the idea and I think it’s genius, but I think the joke doesn’t warrant a video that’s 9+ minuets. The joke feels stretched out a bit for me but I like the concept 👌🏻
Why has nothing like this happened? Even when we didn't have Net Neutrality this didn't happen. The internet has always been free and it will be free especially without government regulation.
Nathan Kettell is fully aware of what's really going on and not what the democratic spokes people are saying over at CNN which is a bunch of propaganda! And scare tactics.
Anytime there is a problem there are two solutions- Using force (laws and regulation) to control others in violation of their rights. Or letting ideas thrive and fail on their own merits, and letting individuals choose things according to their own priorities. The free-market is the solution to things, not regulation. Look at which companies support "net neutrality" and that should say enough. (Hint: it's the big companies that benefit from government protectionism)
The free-market can only work when there is an actual free market. Many people only have one Internet Service Provider, meaning that if they do not enjoy one ISP's business, they can't switch since they only have one, meaning the market is not truly free as they have no choice. That leaves too much power to ISPs. Shit, let me use a real possible example. I live in an area that only has AT&T. Lets say AT&T slowed down Netflix for not paying them a $10.99 fee. AT&T also opens up another streaming service that is fast, unlike Netflix. I can't switch to a company that doesn't to that because I only have AT&T. There isn't a free market there, is there?
Because ISP's are such tiny companies. Like you do understand that either way someone is under control the question is whether it's a partially democratically controlled oligarchy or giant coorparations which only have profit in mind
Let's see...I have Time Warner for cable internet, or AT&T for DSL internet. COX cable services the areas around where I live (as in, across the two streets nearest my house), but not where I live. As far as I'm aware, that's the only broadband available in my area. So tell me how the "free market" is going to benefit me. Then take a look at Kentucky, where the incumbent ISPs literally sued to block Google from having a neutral third party move their lines so Google's could be put in. Instead, the incumbent companies get to go out to move the lines when it suits them, at the speed it suits them. So they can simply drag their feet for weeks, months, maybe even years, to stifle competition in the area. Let's keep the Internet classified as a Utility. You pay for the maximum speed you want, and get to use your bandwidth for whatever legal purposes you want. No throttling, no preferred treatment.
Anyone else find the Irony in this? Restaurants are able to do this, but because there is competition in the market they would not do so. Internet service providers will not charge separate fees or faster lanes according to which website you go to because of competition in the market. A restaurant could charge you for every step you take, but would anyone go to it? An ISP could charge different prices depending on which website, but would anyone use that ISP?
There are many different restaurants you can go to depending on where you live. The problem is that there is barely any competition in ISP's and most ppl only have 1 real option
Yeah, the reason there is no competition is because they have regulated the industry to the point of paralyzing the industry. Lower regulations, watch competition boom. But economics is hard. Don't worry your overtaxed brain about it.
Comcast, Time Warner, and AT&T have all been caught doing this. Comcast in particular have done it enough times to warrant legitimate worry, both as the parent company and through Verizon. Or were you under a rock when they were publicly called out for forcing Netflix to pay premium prices in order to stop straddling their streaming service, which in turn, caused Netflix to raise their subscription prices. Comcast even tried to pull that crap with Hulu and TH-cam, but thank god the company was legally forced to cease and desist. And guess what, Comcast is still the number 1 cable company, and run a monopoly in several municipalities. And no, because of several laws that they lobbied for, it is not illegal for a large ISP like Comcast or AT&T to hold a monopoly. In fact, it is illegal to try and compete with them. If you're lucky they share some cities and states with AT&T (which now owns DirecTV ) and Charter (which now owns Bright House Networks and Time Warner Cable) but that's about it. Unless, you include Direct TV but let's be real.
Net Neutrality is like food regulations. We wouldn't want to see false information about our food, now would we. Sadly, there are people who will disagree with me. A shame really.
Few people would want to see false information about their food, I definitely agree with you. That's why it's much more profitable to label food correctly, rather than incorrectly. God forbid, you could make a customer sick, and unless if you run a hospital, making customers sick is always a bad business plan.
An ISP wouldn’t be in business very long if they operated like this, and neither would a restaurant. Both businesses can charge whatever extra fees they want, but there is a common sense limit, and the small matter of staying competitive. They have customers to please.
Wrathorn The amount of people that have asked that just goes to show how little everyone really knows about this subject. Local governments keep ISPs out of the area and keep competition from occurring. Local governments are the reason why there is only one ISP in certain areas.
jack gogdain Exactly. Who do you think created those systems? Not the ISPs. Not the free market. State governments. If a small company simply refuses, then no one can forcefully buy anyone out, no matter how much money they have.
Zack V Monopolies only exist when government intervenes. There are no examples of naturally forming monopolies anywhere in the history of the free market.
+Mesarvagya777 Actually, net neutrality was implemented in 2015, and before it was implemented, nothing happened, in fact there was so much competition with ISPs, but now. It's barren and regulated by the government, please shut your mouth before you say anything else stupid.
Jesus Christ, people like you are so stupid. Just because they're illegal doesn't mean they won't do it, it's not a word of god, it's writing on a paper. It's like saying gun control will stop all gun crime because it makes it illegal to have guns, well it is illegal to murder someone, so give me an example of murders if it's illegal? www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2015/06/atampt-faces-100-million-fine-in-fccs-first-ever-net-neutrality-case/457374/
I remember one of the episodes in SpongeBob SquarePants where Mr Krabs go out on a date and his bill came out to $10,000 turns out he had the wrong bill, the correct one was $100,000.
Do you think the restaurants provide these services for free? Do you think the waiter works for free? Do you think the dishwasher works for free? Do you think the napkins are free? It's all bundled into the price of the meal.
I expected his wine glass to be filled more because he mentioned he was paying. If restaurants actually treated us like this, we'd never go back. Problem with ISPs is that... there's only 1 of them for most people.
2 things to remember 1. in some places this would be the ONLY restaurant in town 2. even if you dont like pizza, they might be a pizzaria (they could literally disallow you to visit websites that paint them or anyone whose paid them off in a bad light, thats not freedom of speech, thats not freedom of information, that's just anarachy)
Scary because I been to establishments like this! It's called high end restaurants when your entree costs $80 they just combine the extras together, like convenience fees :D
Could not be more true. It's unbearably naive to think that huge companies driven by endless greed wouldn't screw you over when you basically give them the keys to the kingdom. They wouldn't want this if it's not gonna make them billions... which are coming out of you pocket of course.
*second* heart attack fee, lying on the floor fee, existing fee, waiter fee, *12 minutes later*, and the waiter telling you the fees fee. Ajit Pai has some serious karma comin.
Actually, I meant no disrespect! Performance was quite solid, and you were easily the best actor on screen. "Discount" merely refers to the fact that, well, I've never heard of/seen you before.
I didn't take offense to it, if it came off that way then I apologize. I was just confused on how I compared. I appreciate the compliment on my acting and I am still very new in acting. It's been a lifelong dream that might be fulfilled but I'm having fun anyway.
Well, I compared you to CW since your accent was a dead-ringer for him. The accent seemingly "kicks in" at 0:52. Before that it seems like you were going for the stereotypical French Maître D' persona- but then you suddenly adopted this fairly strong Austrian accent with just a touch of French. Other than that, your mannerisms vaguely reminded me of him. I enjoyed the mild stoicism your character put forward, while at the same time I could sense that you were having a bit of fun with your lines/the scene. To be honest, I thought you were a professional actor who did skits like this and commercials, as the other two actors seemed ever so slightly awkward in the roles- especially the male. They weren't bad. Just didn't seem as comfortable as you.
Thank you. You're right, I was given a lot of freedom to portray my character and I thought I'd be funny if I did a bunch of accents. I've got another comedy short film on my channel and there's a lot more coming as well
This reminded me of that Spongebob episode where Mr. Krabs made a list with like "Breathing - $5 Talking - $10 Existing - $1" and when Mr Krabs made the rule that made customers charge $1 per footstep.
Fee's aren't really the big fear over net neutrality. It's more along the lines if they tried to leave the restaurant, one of the wait staff would follow them around and block them from going into any restaurants that weren't affiliated with the original restaurant. And if any bums along the way started ranting and raving about how horrible the original restaurant was, they wait staff would tackle them to the ground, muzzle them, then remove them.
I hope you've all paid your $2.99 post a public comment fee
Don’t forget, you’ll also have to pay a $5/GB broadcasting fee for any video you upload.
Mr. RipTear shit that would ruin my channel
no dad
MassMan Pro pfft no that’s what they get. I’ll throw that bill into the garbage disposal thank you very much
I guess I'll have to pay the fees to like abd reply to your comment as well
Second heart attack fee 😂😂
This video was completely unrealistic. There were no disruptive ads, no "your meal is poisoned, get a free tox-scan" warning, no needless pausing of the waiter as he was just about to set their food down, no "your table must be upgraded in order to eat this meal"... :p
A smith I agree. There should also be a part where they show another restaurant not doing these things to display what competition does.
+The Pope Problem is that in many markets in the US there is, simply, no competition. In many others there is, but only in the form of a duopoly, where both companies are about equally bad.
So as much fun as it would be to see them drive around desperately looking for a new restaurant to try, or to find one and have them be just as bad, I think it would be repetitive. This one video is plenty.
TheRedRaccoonDog and with the net neutrality repeal they also got rid of government regulations that hurt small ISPs.
+ The Pope The ones people keep mentioning but never listing. The fact is that not being able to extort people for money to use services properly costs them money. That's probably what people mean.
Ajit Pai would argue you get those things now, because OF net neutrality. Moment net neutrality goes away, you won't have those.
EA restaurant be like
Squid Elvis you're goddamn right
Squid Elvis they forgot the walking fee, the opening door fee, use of restroom fee, cleaning fee,talking fee

I call this...
*Food Neutrality*
Kaan Dagdas next evening.... the FDA scheduled to repeal food neutrality laws starting december 2018.
It reminds me a SpongeBob SquarePants where squidward was holding a bill listing of all basic human (actually sea creatures) thing does by instinct. Might as well be charged for even touching the door handle to the exit
GHB yes, when Mr. Krabs gave him the bill
There was net neutrality before 2014
Enjoyed this thoroughly. Hope it goes viral.
blackholeproductions same here! The guys who put this together are amazing and talented people. I'm happy I got to act in it as well as becoming more involved in future videos. Glad you liked it!
Oh Comcast, AT&T, Verizon and others are getting into the dining business now? Ajit Pai is such a forward thinker.
Mulinaster thats because the isps were abiding fairly before nn unofficially until they began to block and throttle sites and services which forced obama and the fcc to make it official to stop this. If u want the internet to be like cable thats ur agenda but the rest of us prefer nn to stand.

You guys are so dumb this is nothing what the internet will be like
The FCC understands the problem Ajit pi and the politicians he bribed are the ones who are doing this
Anf44 Yes it is
DON'T GIVE THEM MORE IDEAS!!!
Well done. Really enjoyed this.
There was net neutrality before 2014
Here: th-cam.com/video/K6fWuUpyPG4/w-d-xo.html
e.g. Comcast was throttling p2p services.
PD: that's not an external link, it's a video in this same website, youtube.
I would've just left
You and everyone else, and the restaurant would go out of business. Which is why this video is absolutely unrealistic, retarded, even.
exactly
Restaurant monopoly, all 2 restaurants in your area are doing this.
Scooter Doo not really. Internet nowadays has become a necessity. Just leaving in this case equates to not using internet.
+Scooter Doo

She is on Life is Strange. Wow great job!
Jeremy Courouleau witch character?
Tristan Sullivan the main woman in the video
Jeremy Courouleau no I mean in life is strange
Tristan Sullivan the main character in the game Life is Strange: Before The Storm. Not the first game. Sorry. m.imdb.com/name/nm8244422/
No it says she plays some miscellaneous characters, Rhianna DeVries plays Chloe
This was awesome. You guys need more subs
TheEXGamemaster they really don’t. This is the most misleading and incorrect representation of net neutrality I’ve ever seen.
Howard Johnson Jr. holy shit fuck off
yvng. asu would you like to better put into words what you mean to say, sir?
I'm sorry sir but if you want to comment here you'll need to pay a $1 fee plus the $0.50 fee that allows other users to like or dislike it.
Daniel Carmona lol, nice. I'm sure it's a .50 cent charge per like/ dislike
I guess nobody has ever payed the dislike fee
uhhhhhhhh......
Yes, a short film about a restaurant is the best way to explain ISPs and bandwidth.
1:19 "I'm paying tonight."
Looks like daytime to me.
Generic Username I don't think they were talking about the meal ;)
Generic Username must agree, this guy must be a mess, sitting for 3+ hours, & agreeing to pay these criminal prices; billionaire boys'club? desperate to get laid, while flaunting his casual attitude on spending , almost ridiculously, the UGLY FRAT BOY SMUG AMERICAN ELITIST,& a silly, prat of a date.
*JUST ACCURATE*
Lol not.
F4ZE PACINO completely inaccurate really.
I am surprised there was not a table fee that varies according to location in the restaurant.
Jocelyn Russell lol there was but he died before I got to that one..
Why isn't this viral?
NerdyNinja because it is very wrong. Even TH-cam who likes to put liberal videos on the top knows that this is kinda pathetic. There's something called the free market and capitalism. Look it up
Yeah... great service, Verizon. Great service... *sighs*
This was way longer than it needed to be. I mean, 9 minutes? 5 minutes is funny video, 9 minutes is a lecture.
Wow, that pizza looked nasty.
Darya Ionesco lol, it probably was after reshooting the scene a dozen times
Pizza wasn't even pizza.
There was a 24.99 "properly cooked" fee.
I'm still surprised that this channel still doesn't have at least 1k subs from this video. It was made perfectly well!
This channel deserves more subs!
This was great😂 it honestly made me laugh and it was really good, the lighting was great, the acting was amazing, the overall cinematography was superb. Keep it up!
Sounds like life. Maybe if we moved into a company town we would be used to this kind of life.. No raise, increased rent, coming into work early so the prep work for our job can be done off the clock. Vacations, paid vacation? You must be crazy. As for health care the company pays. Your arm was amputated because it was determined the cost of treating that hangnail was more than the charges for amputation. By the way, you will need to return to work. You will be allowed to sit in the break room until the end of your scheduled shift. We don’t want your amputated arm to be a loss of work incident.
Don Morgan lol, you've played the game I see!
You mean like in 2010 when Comcast charged customers for internet access and then charged Netflix on the other end to allow their content to be allowed full speed? Think about it.

There has never been competition in my area. Never will be. People can shill for Comcast and At&t all they want, it will not make a free market enable a business to realistically enter into competition with those juggernauts. Moreso when they can alter legislation when it suits them.
Try not to assume I read whatever crap you think I do, insulting the intelligence of the next two (or is it three now?) generations certainly doesn't gain you any credibility, nor does it make you sound intelligent, it just makes you sound like an ass. Just because socialism doesn't work on any level does not automatically mean that full on capitalism works on every level either, and spouting off your "leftists are losers, righty's might is right" just makes you sound as crazy as they do. With that kind of zeal, one can only ask, how much are they paying you to comment on these videos with your "the sky isn't falling" rhetoric? Seriously.. they are going that far in damage control now?
Since you decided to bring politics into it, the FCC removing Title 2 protection may be the first real step in marching the country into Fascism. Well done, Gentile would have been proud. The worst part is, a huge swath of the country will march into it, flags waving high, proud to do so, behind their proud donkey, completely not understanding where they are heading to. The 2020s may be a stark remembrance to the 1920s, only in America instead of Europe, with the National Socialists played by a "democratic" government who is your "family", who only wants to take care of you like a good family should.
"Establishing the doomsday monopoly..." It's already established... In fact, it's one merger away. All they have to do is get the right merger through the cracks. Or did they already?
Consumer backlash is certainly a market control. I hope they choke on it.
Lol, nice. Attack! Good job. I'm sure you feel better now. Take care, take a hike, do whatever. I'm not going to waste any more time on you, you've already proven you cannot hold to the conversation, but only go on to attack someone on every single response. You may want to go have that aggressiveness checked yourself.
It made me laugh out loud when he covered there ears and said you didn't sign up for the music fee so you can't listen lol
21 subs? you got to be kidding me. This channel will have 100k subs and i'll be the 22nd sub!
shiba plays the plan is to start putting more videos on here pretty regularly. I hope to have a part in it every chance I get. If you haven't yet, subscribe to this channel and watch new videos when they come out
Yep, I subbed
Awesome!
It was up for only one week, and this channel had only one subscriber then. There are more now, a number of weeks later.
Bro you're just a tad short of 100k hate to break it to ya... more like 800... you were wrong. Just like the video is wrong in.... pretty much perfectly everything :) the internet hasn't ended or even realy changed that much.
430 people disliked this video. 430 people would like to live like this
Mitchell Golding 430 people know that this isnt what net neutrality is
That to
Yeah, sorry to inform you but this is actually already a thing elsewhere in the world. I know for a fact that in some parts of northern Italy, you are separately charged for the silverware, glasses, napkins, water, tables and chairs...
Thank goodness I don't live in Northern Italy, in that case?
Where the hell is this so i can never go there, please?
A certain few places in Trieste, Padua, Verona, such and such, but mostly in Venice...
Sergej Miladinovic Guess who is avoiding those shitholes.
Actually, I *highly* reccomend visiting Venice and Verona, some of the most beautiful and culturally rich cities in Italy, just be sure to bring your own lunch, or buy some sandwiches in some bakery ;)
4:40 now this is reminding me of Airlines! So basically the internet is now run like a corporation like everything else!
This video Deserves more attention
You guys have it spot on if an Internet provider was like this no one would go to it
They would if it was the only ISP in town. It's either go to shitty ISP or have no internet.
theredraccoondog is correct, and that is the case for around 80% of the US, we only have one choice of ISP, if we dont like it, we dont get net . . . nice try tho
lol!!!! THIS MADE MY DAY!!!
Atem S. really cuz it ruined mine...
I'm glad someone did this, thank you!
Net Neutrality is extremely important and this video is hilarious... but this is an absolutely piss-poor metaphor for how Net Neutrality works. Extra/Hidden fees and packages are just a tiny fraction of a non-regulated internet - this shows a childish understanding of the issue. If they wanted to keep the metaphor the charges would be up-front but there would only be two restaurants in town and they'd both be the same. Then the food on the menu would come out at totally different times and qualities based on how much the restaurant supported the food and/or the particular chef who made it. The waiter would constantly be letting them know all of this, and trying to get them to order the "Resteraunt's Choice" dishes, and the chefs would have to bribe the restaurant with money simply to _work_ there. Sure that would be a more complicated video, but it would make a lot more sense and actually address some of the problems at play. ISPs have been using mandatory hidden fees for years, and Net Neutrality can't stop that. The throttling and monopolizing is the actual issue. Fees are just one small result of that.
Awesome. This made my day. Hope this goes viral.
Second heart attack fee...
Absolutely amazing! Great job on this!
Wow just a great video, good job, very surprised this is coming from a channel with so little subscribers, but a true hidden gem indeed, hope you get the amount of subscribers you deserve because this is simply a masterpiece.
*THIS IS RANDOM BUT THEY'RE SO GOOD LOOKING AND I LOVE THEIR EYES💜💜💜*
oh my gosh this hurts me
good video :D
He was nice enough to not include the public disturbance fee from yelling with the ear phones on.
Did the singer just say angels Deserve to Die?
Chop suey!
System Of A Down!
Lol someone said chop suey before i did
19 dollar river water fee!!!
😂😂😂 I'm dead! I hope you get a million subscribers bro!
Did i miss something or is this already the world we live in
not yet, but only because there is a elay between the vote (happened) and the changes going into effect (a few month from now)
Unless congress/courts stop it, it will then (probably slowly) move towards "this". I think it was AT&T who will have to wait a bit more befor it can implement such changes, since it is disallowed by contract to block/throttle/make such packages until june(?). Then again, the fact, that such provisions had to be put into the contract in the first place, tells you what the ISPs will do once they are allowed to.
Surprisingly good quality for the amount of subscribers
Heyyyy that's pretty good

Who originally made this video?
Hi, we made this video!
Angotango Pictures exceptionally done! It just looked too professional for a channel with so few subscribers.
Subscribe and you'll see more! Thanks for watching
Agotango Pictures you made this while you have 85 subs
Angotango Pictures it got my sub
Haha God damn this was well made definitely needs more views
This is so true I am crying from the fear of Ajit Pai that is currently hiding in my closet ready to attack me at any mo...
Sekiko 824 forgive me but what is Ajit pai?
Nathan Lloyd Pratt Actual question or sarcasm?
Actual question. I've never seen that before and am curious about it's meaning
Nathan Lloyd Pratt Look up Ajit Pai...and his memes...
Will do, thanks
THIS IS GOLD! Excited to see more!👌🙏😎
I get the idea and I think it’s genius, but I think the joke doesn’t warrant a video that’s 9+ minuets. The joke feels stretched out a bit for me but I like the concept 👌🏻
This is AWSOME !
Why has nothing like this happened? Even when we didn't have Net Neutrality this didn't happen.
The internet has always been free and it will be free especially without government regulation.
Nathan Kettell it had numerous time . Netflix got slowed down . And a number of other things . Look it up.
That's really not that bad.... And don't have netflix if you don't like their service...
Nathan Kettell is fully aware of what's really going on and not what the democratic spokes people are saying over at CNN which is a bunch of propaganda! And scare tactics.
Nathan Kettell Thank you! You're the first smart person I've seen in the comment section!
Look up the Net Neutrality Lie by PSA Sitch
My favorite video this week
Pshhht I give 0 shit Germany ftw
You guys just earned yourselves a new subscriber.
Tony Arevalo glad to have you onboard!
i love this vid
"It's okay, honey. I'm paying"
That wouldn't stop me from worrying if I was in this situation.
Anytime there is a problem there are two solutions-
Using force (laws and regulation) to control others in violation of their rights.
Or letting ideas thrive and fail on their own merits, and letting individuals choose things according to their own priorities.
The free-market is the solution to things, not regulation.
Look at which companies support "net neutrality" and that should say enough.
(Hint: it's the big companies that benefit from government protectionism)
The free-market can only work when there is an actual free market. Many people only have one Internet Service Provider, meaning that if they do not enjoy one ISP's business, they can't switch since they only have one, meaning the market is not truly free as they have no choice. That leaves too much power to ISPs.
Shit, let me use a real possible example. I live in an area that only has AT&T. Lets say AT&T slowed down Netflix for not paying them a $10.99 fee. AT&T also opens up another streaming service that is fast, unlike Netflix. I can't switch to a company that doesn't to that because I only have AT&T. There isn't a free market there, is there?
Because ISP's are such tiny companies. Like you do understand that either way someone is under control the question is whether it's a partially democratically controlled oligarchy or giant coorparations which only have profit in mind
Let's see...I have Time Warner for cable internet, or AT&T for DSL internet. COX cable services the areas around where I live (as in, across the two streets nearest my house), but not where I live. As far as I'm aware, that's the only broadband available in my area. So tell me how the "free market" is going to benefit me.
Then take a look at Kentucky, where the incumbent ISPs literally sued to block Google from having a neutral third party move their lines so Google's could be put in. Instead, the incumbent companies get to go out to move the lines when it suits them, at the speed it suits them. So they can simply drag their feet for weeks, months, maybe even years, to stifle competition in the area.
Let's keep the Internet classified as a Utility. You pay for the maximum speed you want, and get to use your bandwidth for whatever legal purposes you want. No throttling, no preferred treatment.
Thank you!!!
Or actually look at the different schools of economic though and find out that the oh so great equilibrium is BULL.
She is stunning .
Anyone else find the Irony in this? Restaurants are able to do this, but because there is competition in the market they would not do so. Internet service providers will not charge separate fees or faster lanes according to which website you go to because of competition in the market. A restaurant could charge you for every step you take, but would anyone go to it? An ISP could charge different prices depending on which website, but would anyone use that ISP?
There is barely any competition for ISPs. There is a lot of competition for restaurants. Many towns in the US only have one ISP.
There are many different restaurants you can go to depending on where you live. The problem is that there is barely any competition in ISP's and most ppl only have 1 real option
Yeah, the reason there is no competition is because they have regulated the industry to the point of paralyzing the industry. Lower regulations, watch competition boom. But economics is hard. Don't worry your overtaxed brain about it.
Comcast, Time Warner, and AT&T have all been caught doing this. Comcast in particular have done it enough times to warrant legitimate worry, both as the parent company and through Verizon. Or were you under a rock when they were publicly called out for forcing Netflix to pay premium prices in order to stop straddling their streaming service, which in turn, caused Netflix to raise their subscription prices. Comcast even tried to pull that crap with Hulu and TH-cam, but thank god the company was legally forced to cease and desist. And guess what, Comcast is still the number 1 cable company, and run a monopoly in several municipalities. And no, because of several laws that they lobbied for, it is not illegal for a large ISP like Comcast or AT&T to hold a monopoly. In fact, it is illegal to try and compete with them. If you're lucky they share some cities and states with AT&T (which now owns DirecTV ) and Charter (which now owns Bright House Networks and Time Warner Cable) but that's about it. Unless, you include Direct TV but let's be real.
in area i live in i have no choise only one firm does internernet in aparment i live in so nope no such luck
It would be more like "I'm sorry, but pizza is in a different package from wine. You will have to pay for two packages".
Glad we have food neutrality now. All calorie amounts cost the same, it's good that we have food neutrality, otherwise food would be destroyed!
Net Neutrality is like food regulations. We wouldn't want to see false information about our food, now would we. Sadly, there are people who will disagree with me. A shame really.
Few people would want to see false information about their food, I definitely agree with you. That's why it's much more profitable to label food correctly, rather than incorrectly. God forbid, you could make a customer sick, and unless if you run a hospital, making customers sick is always a bad business plan.
This guy has way too much money, I woulda left the second he said there was extra fees but these guys are patient as hell.
An ISP wouldn’t be in business very long if they operated like this, and neither would a restaurant. Both businesses can charge whatever extra fees they want, but there is a common sense limit, and the small matter of staying competitive. They have customers to please.
Yea, but most cities out here have only 1 isp to choose from. if I get rid of this one, there's no one else..who's competing with them?
Wrathorn The amount of people that have asked that just goes to show how little everyone really knows about this subject. Local governments keep ISPs out of the area and keep competition from occurring. Local governments are the reason why there is only one ISP in certain areas.
jack gogdain Exactly. Who do you think created those systems? Not the ISPs. Not the free market. State governments. If a small company simply refuses, then no one can forcefully buy anyone out, no matter how much money they have.
GlennElliottKeller except if they have a monopoly like what they will probably do next.
Zack V Monopolies only exist when government intervenes. There are no examples of naturally forming monopolies anywhere in the history of the free market.
I love it!
Now let's just wait for this to get viral! 😊
Oh look the internet is still the same whoop dee doo.
Lets talk after an year dumbass.
+Mesarvagya777 Actually, net neutrality was implemented in 2015, and before it was implemented, nothing happened, in fact there was so much competition with ISPs, but now. It's barren and regulated by the government, please shut your mouth before you say anything else stupid.
The SlashingSceptile574, And they still did it with Net Neutrality. Perhaps you should actually do some research?
Jesus Christ, people like you are so stupid. Just because they're illegal doesn't mean they won't do it, it's not a word of god, it's writing on a paper. It's like saying gun control will stop all gun crime because it makes it illegal to have guns, well it is illegal to murder someone, so give me an example of murders if it's illegal?

Discourages? I imagine throttling has been done many times without anyone noticing.
Was the 99 sub! Really good production!
I remember one of the episodes in SpongeBob SquarePants where Mr Krabs go out on a date and his bill came out to $10,000 turns out he had the wrong bill, the correct one was $100,000.
David Poulton omg that's funny haha
350th subscriber here I'm reporting this before the subs blowup
Do you think the restaurants provide these services for free? Do you think the waiter works for free? Do you think the dishwasher works for free? Do you think the napkins are free? It's all bundled into the price of the meal.
Now imagine only having one or two company operating those kinds of restaurants in your states.
I expected his wine glass to be filled more because he mentioned he was paying. If restaurants actually treated us like this, we'd never go back. Problem with ISPs is that... there's only 1 of them for most people.
2 things to remember
1. in some places this would be the ONLY restaurant in town
2. even if you dont like pizza, they might be a pizzaria (they could literally disallow you to visit websites that paint them or anyone whose paid them off in a bad light, thats not freedom of speech, thats not freedom of information, that's just anarachy)
they didn't pay their talking fee, their breathing fee,or their looking fee...
this was done amazingly!
If the restaurant was owned by EA....
the pizza would have RNG ingredients too. You would have to buy multiple pizzas to get what you want.
Scary because I been to establishments like this! It's called high end restaurants when your entree costs $80 they just combine the extras together, like convenience fees :D
Could not be more true.
It's unbearably naive to think that huge companies driven by endless greed wouldn't screw you over when you basically give them the keys to the kingdom. They wouldn't want this if it's not gonna make them billions... which are coming out of you pocket of course.
"My aunt Lisa?" lol
i mean... the pinte was a bit stretched out for the joke, but the video was made really well and its... kinda accurate
This is why we need socialized internet. Woo!
*second* heart attack fee, lying on the floor fee, existing fee, waiter fee, *12 minutes later*, and the waiter telling you the fees fee.
Ajit Pai has some serious karma comin.
If this happened at a physical establishment, they'd suffer a pretty large Arson Fee before the month is out.
I am so happy to have seen this
"I'm paying tonight"
It looks like it's the middle of the day
The waiter is like a discount Christoph Waltz.
I'm not sure how to take that
Actually, I meant no disrespect! Performance was quite solid, and you were easily the best actor on screen. "Discount" merely refers to the fact that, well, I've never heard of/seen you before.
I didn't take offense to it, if it came off that way then I apologize. I was just confused on how I compared. I appreciate the compliment on my acting and I am still very new in acting. It's been a lifelong dream that might be fulfilled but I'm having fun anyway.
Well, I compared you to CW since your accent was a dead-ringer for him. The accent seemingly "kicks in" at 0:52. Before that it seems like you were going for the stereotypical French Maître D' persona- but then you suddenly adopted this fairly strong Austrian accent with just a touch of French. Other than that, your mannerisms vaguely reminded me of him. I enjoyed the mild stoicism your character put forward, while at the same time I could sense that you were having a bit of fun with your lines/the scene. To be honest, I thought you were a professional actor who did skits like this and commercials, as the other two actors seemed ever so slightly awkward in the roles- especially the male. They weren't bad. Just didn't seem as comfortable as you.
Thank you. You're right, I was given a lot of freedom to portray my character and I thought I'd be funny if I did a bunch of accents. I've got another comedy short film on my channel and there's a lot more coming as well
This reminded me of that Spongebob episode where Mr. Krabs made a list with like "Breathing - $5 Talking - $10 Existing - $1" and when Mr Krabs made the rule that made customers charge $1 per footstep.
"We paid five dollars for this?"
"I paid ten!"
A month later; everyone does fine without net neutrality
lol, the vote has gone up to the courts and is being contested, so it hasnt been repealed yet, and hopefully it wont be
This only makes sense in a world where equality is anathema.
how does this not have more views?!?!?!
Fee's aren't really the big fear over net neutrality. It's more along the lines if they tried to leave the restaurant, one of the wait staff would follow them around and block them from going into any restaurants that weren't affiliated with the original restaurant. And if any bums along the way started ranting and raving about how horrible the original restaurant was, they wait staff would tackle them to the ground, muzzle them, then remove them.
This is awesome! Wonderful job. Unique idea too.
