You guys should have more faith and quit with the fake scare tactics.
Free market will balance it out.

What fake scare tactics??? Literally ISPs have already proposed fast lanes.

What in the past 20 years of ISPs has proven that? Taking away NN will make it harder for there to be a free market. B/c upstarts who want to challenge the big boys will not even be given the chance.

That's the thing though, there isn't a free market. These companies are being granted market monopolies.
Look at cell service. They tried to do what ISPs WILL be doing and the free market sorted it out. Unlimited data is a thing again. As it stands, a HUGE portion of the country can't just shop around for ISPs like you can cell phone service.

Explain to me how?
If tomorrow Cox and ATT decided to charge $1200 a month for acess to all blog sites, or decided Fox News is free with all subscribers but CNN costs an extra 200 per month for users and CNN itself has to pay Cox $200 and it still runs slower with less bandwidth than Fox, how would the free market punish them?
Explain it.
If Cox decides it will allow you access to certain sites but not others, how do you let the free market change that?
You can't just start a new ISP. That's not how it works. And in many places you only have 1 or 2 choices for an ISP
