I was going to weigh in again but he's made my arguments very well on this page already.

In particular the one about giving att and comcast the right to decide which businesses will live or die.

Slo you can't possibly argue that giving comcast the right to decide what kind of data is allowed over what is essentially a power line is a good thing can you?

By that logic electric companies should be able to shut down power to your HVAC if they decide you're running it too much or the water company can shut off water to outside spigots since you're using it to water your lawn instead of for drinking.

Maybe the gas company should charge you extra if you're using gas preparing a meal for someone who doesn't live at your address.
