The problem here is that fundamentally, I agree with the concept, although even what is considered net neutrality has been bastardized and politicized and basically taken over by special interest groups.

Net neutrality as a concept is wonderful. Too many people however think it’s a license for a free for all, thinking that it will do things like make it impossible to deal with piracy, promote the dark web, and generally render the internet lawless. If anything was that simple, I am sure everyone would have signed up for it already.

You are much more likely to see any net neutrality agreement come with one of those lovely political asterisk, where it says “does not apply to illegal activities”, which will then lead to the inevitable fights. Companies will not want to be held on the hook to provide support for illegal activities. You could also bet that ISPs will push for a “no P2P” type clause, meaning that IP services that go direct to consumers would be okay, but consumer to consumer (bit torrent, chat, telephony, and the like) would all be considered outside of the net neutrality arrangement and more seriously subject to restriction.

Look before you leap… supporting the heck out of something without knowing what you are buying is the first step towards hell.

So starting a “write in” campaign that can be defeated with a single line in a spam filter isn’t anything other than perhaps mental masturbation, you make yourself feel good but the effects are lost because the only one who got anything out of it was you.

it’s also annoying to see that it’s a “US Only!” thing, but the whole world is being subjected to the annoyance.
