I understand the nature of these proceedings and the possibility that in all likelihood what we have to say on the matter may not be weighed with much gravity. However, for a moment I would like to address your supposed "reasoning" for doing away with net neutrality. According to your ranks, this reversal comes about to put an end to the act of ISP providers intentionally bottle-necking their own services and content to customers. I point to the infamous Comcast/Netflix fiasco as a prime example.
While I agree ISPs should not be allowed to conduct these kinds of practices, it does not mean we citizens must suffer the consequences for their wrongdoing. Disposing of net neutrality will only ensure these practices continue, and operate under an unofficial veil of transparent support from a government agency.
Rather than encouraging them, you should be setting an example of good and ethically just policy declaration for your country and all nations globally, and institute a fining policy for all ISP providers that intentionally bottleneck content providers for no apparent reason. Isolated incidents of bottle-necking should not be used as fuel for disengaging a rational, logical, and common sense approach to handling the speed and flow of data on the internet, an approach that was designed with the consumer in mind first and farmost.
It is illogical and shameful to punish consumers for the bad habits of corporations; it solves absolutely nothing and continues to let the real problems, such as lack of sufficient infrastructure, continue to linger. All the while, America as a nation continues to fall behind the curve of other developed and developing nations on broadband network service, giving other nations opportunities to empower their citizens and work-base. That itself is not a bad thing, but it is an atrocity that there are political and corporate interests in this country that continue to keep Americans from being given these same tools.
Preserve net neutrality, and focus on improving the broadband infrastructure of this nation. It has helped the internet become an incredible tool at our disposal, and allowing us-and by extension America-benefit in all sectors of culture and economics. It has helped to set an example for regulation of data flow that is now being implemented in other nations across the world, but-almost as a joke-looks to be abandoned in the land such regulations originated.
The death of net neutrality will negatively affect citizen communication, consumer spending, business productivity and even corporate investment in this nation. For such reasons, we urge you to look within your hearts and consider the damages you could bring for decades to come by taking the wrong path.
