@s73v3r "Once a non-Neutral net takes hold, it will be much harder to go back to a Neutral one."Why will it be much harder? I actually think it will actually be easier. Rather than trying to make a law to combat something that doesn't even exist yet, we'd be making a law against something that was actually happening. The law could be tailored to the exact problems that arise. We wouldn't need to guess what the problems might be in the future."And just about everybody else would say that the free market has failed miserably with ISPs"I don't think that's true. I am quite happy with my internet service. It is blazing fast (over 1000 KBps) and only costs $40 per month."given that so many of them have monopoly status in their area."They don't have permanent monopolies. They are basically utility companies. Like SoCal Edison and SDGE. If they do not do a good enough job, they can be replaced. If they violate their contracts, they can be sued by the city. They must deal with some regulation just like ISPs do.I am not against ALL regulation. I am against Net Neutrality."Unless you count "competition" from dial-up ISPs, which I doubt anybody who uses the internet regularly would. "Most people in this country have access to at least 2 broadband ISPs. I have 3 broadband providers in my area (AT&T, Time Warner, Earthlink broadband).
