The question is which evil do you prefer?
You probably would not be able to pinpoint WHY you do not like the goverment doing that, though.
Otherwise, you would have to consider this: corporations already lobby for less regulations across all sectors. So a law preventing them from doing so is exactly in your best interest, no matter whether the goverment, jesus h christ, or Kim Jong-Un makes the law.
Except that there is no evil in regulations.
Without regulations, you have vitamin products not containing vitamin. Foodstuff containing unhealthy food. Services that are barely eligible for the contract you made. Ads that take advantage of your vulnerability towards them. The list goes on.
Neither.
I remember in my college govt class, the instructor did this exercise where we were suppose to goto one side of the room if we were for/against gun control, abortion, etc...I stayed in the middle and refused to take a side.

You can't have your cake and eat it too.
Could you explain what you don't like about net neutrality? We all get you don't like it, but I'm curious as to why.
And that student's name? Albert Einstein.
You mean like Bangbros?

So you don't want the internet at all? I'm confused.
That is a logical fallacy though. Some say that the truth lies somewhere in the middle of certain issues. Thing is, in most issues, it does not. It is easily determinable whether something is good or bad. Not choosing a side does not make you smarter or more right than those taking sides. (Not that you implied it, just saying.)

The point is that this isn't a "Choose side, the other, or neither." problem. If you don't have the government regulating these companies, they will fuck around with the internet. You're not being asked to take a side. You're being asked to stand or stay seated. There isn't a third option. Should you let these companies do what they want, or should you make rules to stop them? Doing nothing is making a decision.

It is pretty sick to see folks celebrating that the democratic legislative process has been stopped in its tracks by an antidemocratic legislative process.
Well I'll be more specific.
Abortion. If a person was raped, and the woman doesn't want the baby based on the rape...its her choice in my opinion.
If a couple decided to have sex and suddenly freaked out because now they're pregnant and didn't take responsibility for the act of sex...im against the woman killing the baby.
Ultimately, all the issues come down to the actual event. Everyone has a right to own a gun, but there should definitely be regulations that keep those weapons safe. No different than if I want to go get my CHL, I have to go through specific training...they don't just hand them out.

Like with landline phones, electricity, roads, railroads, broadcast signals, water, heating etc...
haha @ you thinking the internet companies wouldn't extort money out of slingbox or else get shit bandwidth for its customers. net neutrality if the reason we get things like slingbox and netflix.

I honestly can't even properly put into words how much I hate my ISP. It makes my day to know they're probably shitting bricks right now.

You're against a woman getting an abortion in that instance, so how do you think it would be enforced exactly?
Government regulation and "management"
The very thing you don't want, you want
If I recall the early word was that they would not regulate cost. We may just have to wait for the official terms.
Good lord Vapor.
On Topic, great news for Net neutrality and more competitive ISP options. I just want more options for decent upload speeds in my area without having to bundle some bullshit or go crazy with high download speed packages that are super expensive. Time Warner runs my area, but I am just outside of their boundary for good upload speeds at good prices, even though they have an office like 1 mile from me.

So don't want anyone inspecting food, the water supply, etc.
Hard to vote with your wallet when you go to any store in your town for a particular item and only one company's product is on sale in every single store.

This thread went off the rails, too bad, this is an important topic
This is real disappointing. Then again, so wasn't my electric bill!
If it similar, nothing to stop them from jacking up the price of internet if you do not have cable also, or some such. Luckily I have both FIOS and Comcast in my town.

LOL I knew I recognized that username.
Serious?

Not to wield the legislative power of the federal government, you didn't.
Oh, is that how democracy works? So long as someone at some point was democratically elected, anything that happens after that is presto change-o democracy?
