This whole "net neutrality" thing is overblown and sadly the future of the Internet, a technical endeavor, has been swept up in the idiotic partisanship of the existing two party system. A system that instead of calm reasoning and logic employs slanted and selective "points" to further agendas.

The rules that are being repealed actually enshrined into case law a loophole that allows ISPs to edit which sites are visible as long as they inform customers they are doing so. This case law is now forever on the books even though the rules were temporary. [0]

This is really a battle between tech giants and telecommunication giants. Neither care about you.
