Well, from what the FCC can do, yes, I think it is good (although, of course any bit of Government action should be viewed with scrutiny), as FIT_Gamer said, it makes ISP's not able to Block, Throttle or prioritize bandwidth. Ergo, ISP's have been throttling clients who download (regardless of whether it's legal or not), and Netflix users. We really don't want a 'fast lane' and a 'slow lane' online, and we certainly don't want ISP's deciding such things.
