Bro, do you even logic? These comments remind me of those fundamentalist pamphlets with Jesus riding a dinosaur.

The whole premise of network neutrality is that ISPs should be forced to provide the same capacity connection to each peer network. The government should smite them down if the favor any company over another.

That is exactly what Comcast is doing! They are staunchly providing equal treatment to everyone. Netflix is getting the same treatment as Google Play.

And then a mob of idiots marches out to say "But my Netflix is slooooow! Treat Netflix the same harder!" They will pretend to be shocked when nothing happens.

The simple fact is that quality of service costs money. If you want Netflix to be popular and fast, somebody will have to pay to light all those fiber channels and install all those core routers. Passing a law that says nobody can pay will make the Internet into a Soviet store: free nonexistent bread for everybody.
