Net Neutrality Paradigm Shift

[Xiahou]

Reading comprehension fail. Let's try a hypothetical and see if it makes more sense:

1. Johnny gets his high-speed internet tubes from Time Warner Cable
2. Time Warner Cable has a cross-marketing deal with NBC
3. Johnny wants to watch Glenn Beck
4. TWC has every right to slow or block Fox News while promoting its partners
5. Therefore, by arguing against net neutrality, a popular host like GB may be working against his own interests

De facto net neutrality made the internets what they are today. If you want to go back to the walled garden model of AOL and CompuServe, be my guest, but don't tell me that the rest of us have to go there with you.

Your argument is that since the industry has done just fine on it's own 'de facto', we clearly need to enforce neutrality via ham-fisted regulation that's full of unintended consequences.Brilliant.

Your scenario has zero chance of every happening.
