Are you kidding me? Netflix has peers, in fact netflix has gone full CDN so there are agreements between comcast and netflix. Netflix was never a net neutrality issue but of who was going to pay for more peers, the transit company or netflix for additional physical connection to comcasts equipment. so in effect they already do sign agreements to not get "preferential treatment" but a level of access they need to provide their service.

Advocates, he says, "should not be talking about protecting net neutrality. They shouldn't even use that phrase. They should call it preventing cable company f***ery, because that is what it is."
The fact that a handful ISP's act as gatekeepers to the internet and trillions worth of business transactions bothers me.
