The big ISPs are those who want the net neutrality gone the most and then we have people who believe it would be a much better situation where competition would make the life for those ISPs harder....

You make too much sense. The nice big ISP companies are just trying to fight the evil government so they can share all their profits with small startups to create a healthy competitive environment.

It's pretty ludicrous to see people on this site in favor of abandoning it as I would assume most people here are heavy consumers on internet data with movie streaming and digital downloads. Those will be hit the hardest with extra fees and speed throttling. ISPs here have always favored data caps to charge more for heavy users. Without net neutrality they have better tools to directly target 4K streaming, file sharing, and digital downloads. Heck why not nickel and dime on latency for gaming.

Anyway seems I don't have to worry
