@10tacle There is /nothing/ in there about the government taking over ISPs. Manufacturing companies polluting our air and water with toxins is bad, so we use the power of the government to prevent that from happening. Part of a government's job is to protect their citizens and that includes protecting them from abusive corporate practices.
Unfortunately our political system has become corrupted by money with most politicians paid off by those same corporations as well as wealthy individuals. So they enact policies and legislation that benefit wealthy corporations and individuals and hurt consumers. Removing Net Neutrality being one of those things that benefits corporations and hurts consumers.
Saying the free market will solve everything is pointless when all corporations are driven by the same drive to make money and all engage in the same bad practices. Corporate abuses of one form or another have gone on for over a hundred years and the only real progress that ever happens is when the government steps in to lay down the law of what is ok and what is not ok.
