The real question is does the FCC have the jurisdiction to do any of
this. I think when one of the big guys challenges it in court we
will see that they don't. I am sure that will change at some point
in the future.
The FCC's authority over common carriers is clear. Their authority
over ISPs is not. The DC Circuit's May ruling overturning the
Comcast Order gives a pretty clear picture of the FCC's
authority. Had the FCC actually wanted to make a new set of rules
that could withstand judicial scrutiny, they were told how. They
were also told exactly what would not be approved. Guess which path
they took in yesterday's order...

There is NOTHING broke about 'internet' because it hasn't been regulated.
Your issue is nothing but a complaint about the results of what should never
have been done in the first place.
