The truly shocking thing to me is that any voters believe the ISP's arguments and are ... I guess fine with a portion of their monthly bills being earmarked for litigation to make their consumer experience ever worse.

Anyone who thinks internet regulation is a net negative hasn't tried looking for a job in the past 15 years. Guaranteed full-speed access to job boards is essential in a way that classifieds never managed to achieve.

    It's not like we can do anything about it. Customers can't control what a business does with the money they pay. Writing and calling don't work. The best any one person can do is cancel their service, but they're in the minority.
