What is net neutrality? Did you forget that you entered into a contract
with your ISP? If you don't like what one offers you can excercise your
right to choose a different ISP. Or, you can negotiate with your ISP to
provide you with better quality service.


Yeah, but it goes a little beyond an ISP. There are only a handful of
broadband providers in any one area.
