None of that has anything to do with NN.

NN is when you can't get to "Social Media Startup X" because they didn't pay your ISP.

You are unlikely to even notice this, because only newcomers would be required to pay ransom. Blocking existing sites would lead to customer complaints and actual competition.

That sounds bad! Any examples of that ever happening before or after NN?

Ok, so YEARS before Net Neutrality and the FCC fined them for doing it.

So, in no way supportive of the NN argument.
