Interesting. That's not what I gathered when I've read about it. I gathered quite the opposite. That keeping the status quo is what net neutrality meant. Perhaps I have missed something or misunderstood then and will venture out to search for more info in order to re-evaluate.
"Net neutrality" basically means heavy-handed regulations against ISPs to force them to provide the same quality of service to everyone, instead of allowing them to provide better service for more money (like any other business can do).
