Argumentation and reason are timeless, but propaganda never ages well. This is certainly the case when it comes to the battle fought a few years ago over the now-repealed Title II regulations for what is commonly known as net neutrality.

One of Joe Biden’s campaign working groups has endorsed a return to the heavy internet regulation that was briefly attempted during the Obama era. So, it is worth going back to look at the hysterical, unhinged, and utterly false predictions that came thick and fast in 2017, when Title II net neutrality was abolished in favor of the old, lightly regulated system that has characterized the internet for nearly all of its history.
