In my eyes, we will see a resurgence of P2P and home-hosted services. The reason is that without net neutrality, only companies like Akamai, Netflix, Google, and Meta are able to consistently deliver their bits to customers with low latency and high bandwidth. We have to pay a premium to the VPNs in order to connect to our friends and not get packet loss and jitter. It's one of the main reasons game servers have become so centralized in my opinion.
