It would create intrusive new rules.
The hands-off approach to Web regulation is the way to go.

Net neutrality is in my view one of the most important issues in the US. There is absolutely no reason violate net neutrality. All it does is legalizes segregating web traffic by ISPs. The cell phone industry is a great example of what could happen if many in the government are allowed to have their way.

Censorship ! That's just crazy ! You mean the government gets to decide what is or is not objectionable ? ... we therefore don't get to speak our peace at the cost of not being offended ?
The FCC, huh ? To whom do we appeal ?
Wow. I would hate to see the Government step into this site!

ok...possibly a dumb question but...what is net neutrality?
Mr. Daystar
In a bell tower, watching you through cross hairs.
My gripe is this. My politicians have already ruined my system of government. They have spit on my Constitution. They have proven themselves to be untrustworthy liars when it comes to most every other thing they have put their filthy hands on, while claiming it's in our best interests...so why should I trust they will do this correctly, and fairly? That's my gripe.
Net Neutrality is the idea that the Internet should:
A. Be an open forum for all people who use it, and
B. Should be available to everyone at one price with the same unlimited access.
ISPs (Comcast, Time Warner, AT&T) all have heavily lobbied in the past 10 years to disallow this idea, and rather sell tiered access to users. For example, Comcast might decide to sell Internet access to users in a certain town in Alabama for $20 but limit them to using YouTube, Facebook, E-mail and maybe a few other sites, all while allowing someone in say San Francisco the ability to access anything at all on the Internet at the same $20. In this regard, violating Net Neutrality is little more than a way to rip off people who may not know enough about the Internet to know they're being ripped off. The other way (and they've implemented this too) that ISPs want to violate Net Neutrality is to limit the bandwidth that a person can use. They'll decide that you're only allowed to use 5GB (some arbitrary number) of data, and after that, you can't get anything on the Internet. The basic idea from the standpoint of ISPs is to make more money while providing less service, which is to say, asinine at best.
In theory, it's Government Intervention to stop something like this below happening
It may well have started now.
