I love how the writer is able to downplay all the issues regarding net neutrality.
Or how he's focusing on the carrier markets, instead of the broadband connections @ home. Because, there is no competition in the States when it comes to broadband connections. You can only choose one and it depends on where you live. How far-fetched is it to imagine that either Verizon or AT&T is implementing zero-rating for services like Netflix or some other service, basically urging people to lock-in on those services?
Anyway, it's exactly this attitude and mentality that requires net neutrality.
