The original submission title ("Majority of economists against net neutrality") is at best a distortion of the cited survey's results. Even without considering the confidence-weighted outcome, 44% of those polled "agree" or "strongly agree" that allowing content companies to pay more to ISPs for prioritized traffic is a good idea, while 56% are either "uncertain," "disagree," or have no opinion. (The confidence-weighted outcome is only 1% different.)

Also, this survey appears to have been done in 2014.
