Its double dipping. We already pay for internet usage now you want us to pay for the ability to use our internet on certain sites?




Not all data is creqted equal. Streaming requires hire speeds to ensure quality. I stream almost nothing. Why should I have to pay the same rate as someone who demands more speed to view their pirated content?

I pay for Speed and Data Usage. You dont stream very much so you dont have to pay for extra data usage and you also dont have to pay for the speeds that I do

You don't have to. Pay for 2 MB/s while I pay for 1 GB/s. The net neutrality rules even allowed for throttling to perform network maintenance or to ease bandwidth overload on their end.

However, what was proven with the Netflix and bitTorrent cases was that they were being throttled across the board, not whenever congestion dictated it. That's not really a Net Neutrality issue as there is already protections for bandwidth congestion.
