I’m all for net neutrality, but value competition that comes as a result of deregulation (especially when it comes to removing subsidies), lowering prices. However, the internet is so large, I would have no idea where to start when it comes to picking a provider. What if I pick one, but it doesn’t let me go to 3 sites I like (but I’m stuck with a year long contract, so I can’t go to those sites at my home for 3 years). Then if I switch and pick another I can’t go to 4 different sites that I like. And I might get told about a new cool site, but that one is blocked. Most of all, blocking sites due to bandwidth use for extra profit is just a bad idea, considering how much many sites use when it comes to streaming. Clear actually does this. If you use too much internet, it severely reduces your speed for a couple of hours. Had to switch.
