Golden-i posted:ISPs won't change anything directly affecting users because they're all publicly-traded companies, and the PR blowback would inevitably cost them money/investors (at least in the short-term). they'll go for the "paid-prioritization" route that they're already saying they want to do using QoS rules that companies can pay for to get an edge. Netflix pays for prioritization, for example, so during the 7-10pm window of time where something like 75% of all consumer internet traffic in the US is web streaming, Netflix gets an edge over their competitors like Hulu, which will potentially load slower and seem like a shittier service unless they pay for prioritization as well. the important thing here is that its Netflix and hulu customers paying more to get better service where net neuters want everyone who uses the ISP to pay more with no guarantees for better service.
