With no net neutrality, Comcast can legally impede all traffic from this ISP on their backbones, severely degrading quality of service of small ISP. Threat neutralized.


So wrong. That would be highly illegal. Unfair trade practices is a broad category already enforced by the FTC. "NN" is not needed in the slightest.

I didn't say stop.

I said impede. Even a 5-10% reduction is proven to have a profound impact on costumer service, and as long as you half arse the attempt, impossible to prove.

For fricks sake, we are talking about a company who just got tapped (not slapped) on the wrist by the FCC for forcing services on their customers that were not asked for, and in cased explicitly refused. They made more money than the fine even getting caught breaking the law.
