Until your internet service costs and fees go through the roof, and you can only stream one movie per week before getting hit with overage charges. My household streams hundreds of gigs of data through our ISP each month. I can't even imagine what the fees would be like for "tiered service" for that amount of data. Look at what cell companies charge just for a handful of gigs of data. Those same cell companies are the ones lobbying against net neutrality, and you're onboard with this? There's a reason AT&T keeps trying to buy Time-Warner, and it's not to make things better or cheaper for consumers. These are the same companies that said <100mbps service is all we need.
Just to stir the pot a little here Premi... Let's say you're my neighbor and we both have the same ISP. We're paying the identical amount for our service yet you're using hundreds of gigs, while I'm using 40 (I looked my usage up). I'd be willing to look into a tiered data usage in order to lower my bill for using less than somebody else.
I can tell you one thing, I'm tired of dropping $200/month for cable/internet and another $140 on cell. I'm so close to cutting the cord I can taste it. Just can't quite put it in my mouth... Wait, that doesn't sound right.
In the end, deregulating this result in one of two things:
1. The big ISP will completely screw the consumer and we all end up with a bill twice the amount with service that is worse than before.
2. Capitalism will prevail, private companies will offer competitive services to win customers, and the consumer is happier with their service and/or price.
We call ourselves a free country, but I certainly see the government poking its nose in a lot of areas that it may not belong. Before long you'll have to ask Uncle Sam if it's OK to use that extra pull of toilet paper to wipe yourself clean.
