Net Neutrality is a fancy word that muffles what's really going on here: Cable Operators want to charge consumers more money to access the open Internet. Imagine your Internet coming in "packages" that limit your access to Facebook and Youtube unless you pony up more. It sets up a dangerous stage for small businesses to lose the ability to come in and build better services that compete with those sites.
For example, had Net Neutrality passed a few years back we all might be stuck with MySpace, for example - the "had to have" site of the time. The whole idea sucks so much cheetah dick that I can't imagine it's still being debated in congress. Oh yeah, I know why they're still spending a fortune lobbying for it - because it represents a huge amount of new revenue for cable and internet companies if they force this thing up our asses. Don't let them get away with it!
