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.

Is this some kind of troll or just a stupid statement?

So it has not physically happened.

Most Americans have choices for ISP with the cable/satellite/cellular world now. I have about 10 different options where I live

It would take a lot of collusion between companies to kill it.

You do realize fast lanes and restricting traffic will lead to censorship, esp of publications that certain ISPs think don't agree with their political views.

This 180 out of phase with reality. We saw VC money evaporate when NN was enacted.

The FCC has a looooong history of being the puppet to large telecoms. They kept satellite TV deliver off the market for decades as a sweet little gift to cable companies. Terrible for consumers. Great for cable companies.

But I suppose this time it will be different...
