    The ability to use net neutrality as a censorship device is so clear I don’t understand why it’s not a bigger part of the debate.

    That aside, it’s ludicrous on its face that all bits flying through the pipes should be treated equally; clearly there are emergency services that should get priority as needed, and no one wants spam to get equal treatment with actual information.

    Plus: Why SHOULDN’T I be able to pay for an internet service that prioritizes, say, online gaming performance over email and the like. If that’s my interest, it’s a perfectly legitimate service.
