If it didn't matter, why is there such a big push to kill net neutrality. It matters. They want to do something they aren't allowed to do today, and doing something they aren't allowed to do today means its not in the interests of the Internet as a whole. Don't let this propaganda fool you.

I am mostly indifferent to the net neutrality arguments. Not sticking my head in the sand, I just feel that most of the traffic discrimination everyone is worried about is already happening. The internet was always designed as a government/corporate hybrid and discrimination based on size, importance, etc is already happening on a daily basis. See Free Basics by Facebook for a very clear example: https://info.internet.org/en/story/free-basics-from-internet...
If it's already happening then we should enforce NN laws, not repeal them.
