I dont know how long it will take before ISP's will start selling premium internet, or slowing internet speeds to your favorite sites, ahem, tigerdroppings, if you dont pay them, but if they win it is only a matter of time.

Looks like an opportunity for innovation and competition.

Where it's going to start is going to be that they will once again selectively target customers they consider to be "high usage" and throttle their internet.
And before anyone says they do that already: they used to, and abused the wiggle room they were allowed to do. Which is part of the reason why the FCC codified net neutrality. Those texts you get from AT&T about usage on your data plan lost a LOT of its teeth. It's mostly an intimidation tactic to get you to slow down with limited action behind it.
