True. "Net Neutrality" makes carriers mere regulated utilities - like a phone or power provider.

And FORCED to sell their services to their competitors at cost.

That’s what will kill the internet as we know it. The march of broadband will stop except as forced by government regulation and subsidy. Additional leaps beyond the 40gbs backbone (to 100gbs and beyond) will be stillborn.

The Internet will be frozen in its current state. No innovation.

All the while the content providers are free to make as much money as they can even though the people who built the internet have no reason to invest in further expansion.

When the great bandwidth crunch comes, OR the complete burn down of all available IP addresses under IPv4, the content providers will then scream for further regulation to force the carriers to invest without return.

This is from someone who's been in the business for 40 years.
