Obama Signals Opposition to ‘Fast Lanes’ in Support of Net Neutrality



"I think it is what has unleashed the power of the Internet and we don't want to lose that or clog up the pipes". President Barack Obama reiterated his support for the principle known as net neutrality Thursday, signaling he would be opposed to the proposed Federal Communications plan to create a so-called Internet “fast-lanes.” Speaking at a town hall at a technology co-working space in Santa Monica, Calif., Obama said a level playing field on the Internet was one of his earliest campaign promises. “On net neutrality, I made a commitment very early on that I am unequivocally committed to net neutrality,” Obama said, earning a round of applause from the tech-minded crowd.

A quarter-century ago, Timothy Berners-Lee designed the world's first Web browser and server, kicking off a thing that people started calling the World Wide Web. That system is now in danger from Internet service providers (ISPs) who stand to amass too much power over what was intentionally built as a decentralized network — one where no single actor could dictate outcomes to everyone else.

But the rules currently being deliberated by the Federal Communications Commission, which would tacitly allow ISPs to charge content companies for priority access to consumers, would change how easily inventors can spread their ideas [1].Once a fast lane exists, it will become the de facto standard on the Web. Sites unwilling or unable to pay up will be buffered to death: unloadable, unwatchable and left out in the cold. It won’t be enough anymore to have a great idea and to execute it well.

Nick Fiorenza’s theme for the current September 24, 2014 New Moon is “The Administration of Resources”. Since the New Moon [1li] was conjunct the newly discovered dwarf planet Makemake, Nick wrote [2]:

Based upon an exploration of Makemake’s orbital parameters and its recent role during the 2008-2011 economic turn, Makemake appears to bring attention to leadership issues regarding the administration of resources; and in areas involving economics, ecology and human survival. Makemake may also impel strategic planning and enterprising action to create environmental conditions that ensure a healthy, prosperous and abundant life for groups or for the people in general.






A  chart for the Full Moon eclipse at Santa Monica is shown here. It  brings to culmination issues raised by the New Moon. The Moon is in eighth house opposite Sun in the second as part of a powerful and transformative Grand Cross.

The eighth house has to do with the profits of big business seen as  the joint result of co-operative human activity (seventh). The second house is linked to the resources of the people in general (first). So the opposition of the luminaries in these two houses is asking the question whether we can allow big business to profit at the expense of people’s resources.

The  Sun [15li] is conjunct the stars Seginus, gamma Bootes [17li] and Mufrid, eta Bootes [19li].

The stars of Boötes impel one to create and ensure a proper and harmonious environmental resonance for the healthy evolution of all life. Seginus, the left shoulder of Boötes, the Virgin’s consort and protector, is of strength and responsibility. It along with the stars forming the upraised arm and hand, Gamma, Theta, Iota and Kappa, impel rebellious stance against manipulative or medaling totalitarian authorities attempting to interfere with the healthy birth and expression of soul consciousness on Earth. Seginus conjoins Muphrid, the left foot of Boötes, which impels confident non-hesitant action to provide personal and intimate support by making possible and ensuring proper energetic environments are created so that souls have the opportunity to birth, evolve and express in their highest potential and achieve evolutionary fulfillment.

On the Ascendant [5vi46] are stars of the “caring”  Great Bear, the “evil” Hydra and the “selfish” Dragon so that Nick Fiorenza writes:

Thuban of Draco, in the far northern heavens, just north of Alioth, was Earth’s pole star circa 2600 BC, near the “tear of the Bear,” a point in Earth’s ~25,000-year “evolutionary cycle of the soul” at which time a turning and fractioning occurred in the hierarchical powers governing Earth. This dramatized the separation between those choosing to fight for a greater evolutionary vision and those wanting to maintain totalitarian control of the Earth [3].

About the stars in the area of 6Virgo, (incidentally also the position of Obama’s radix Pluto), Diana Rosenberg writes:

This was the Washington DC, October 1972 Full Moon MC during the First International Conference on Computer Communications when representatives from around the world began work on establishing protocols, one of the origin of the internet events and the Ascendant of the 1989 Aries Ingress at Geneva when the World Wide Web was founded at CERN [4].

On the MC [3ge]  and conjunct Obama’s radix Moon are the stars of the Hyades which were part of the Chinese asterism Py, the Celestial Net! [5]
