  • Wonderful input, thank you. As far as I’m aware, because we haven’t had NN, the downside we’ve seen is ISPs counting data usage for streaming, e.g., Netflix toward a user’s monthly data usage, whereas they wouldn’t count data usage count if the user was streaming from the ISP’s own streaming service.

    This leads me to believe Netflix, Disney, and the swath of companies who provide streaming services, but not their own ISP, may be, indeed, a proponent of NN.

    I can see how, with the combination of ISPs losing money due to implementing that patchwork of “Internet laws”, and other non-ISP-providing streaming service companies losing money to a lack of NN, we may see NN codified into law. But, to get there, things have to get worse first, no?
