Really?
Please provide even one example of any ISP violating your definition of net
neutrality.
Any thought of making broadband service less like telephone service means
that you're giving the special (monopolistic) interests more leeway to behave
like MVPDs, make decisions for you, on what content you can and cannot get.
You mean like Google and Amazon?
Follow the money, Craig. Companies worry first about the bottom line.
And second about bribing politicians to place barriers in the way of both
existing and potential competitors so they can drive more money to the bottom
line by reduced competition.
The "people" have plenty to be concerned about. Net neutrality is
WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYY down the list of issues
BECAUSE THE PEOPLE GOT THEIR NEUTRALITY, Craig!
Yup...
That happened at the turn of the century when the culture of the Internet was
established.
This is the same dumb-ass comment you already tried before. The people
screamed holy hell to the FCC, and got their neutrality mandate. Of course
it's not an issue anymore. But it can easily become an issue again.
It was never a REAL issue Bert.
And Internet bots cannot scream...
They are not people.

Craig
