    Prep for removal of gate keeping bandwidth with met neutrality.

    GOP will gut NN again, leaving the door open for paying for additional bandwidth. Startups won’t be able to compete if they’re slower, so the big companies will have a captive market just like cable companies used to.

    This gives them the ability to squeeze. More money per customer with less customers is cheaper to manage than more customers at less per-person cost.
