Wait a second. When corporations was able to pay providers for prioretization of their trafic over trafic from people, it was somehow better?

Net neutrality is a basic principle of Internet reliability. Every IP, port and protocol is equal. There is no difference between trafic from fucking Google or trafic from some conspiracy theorists forum. If that principle is not enforced, Google could pay providers to prefer Google trafic over conspiracy theorists forum so that latter will become nearly unuseable. So they do exactly that AFAIK. That is why torrents trafic become slower, f.e.

Any bans or whatever FCC could demand from providers under that law is nothing comparing to the prioretizing trafic from corporations, because bans could be easily circumvented without any noticeable losses while it is not easy to do something if your channel is mostly sold to some corporate shit and there is no place for trafic you need. No proxies of VPNs will help in latter case because their trafic will be heavily discriminated too.

So, it looks preferable to have state bans with net neutraliry than corporate driven discrimination of independent hosts without it.
