GOP net neutrality bill would allow paid fast lane...
Sabotaging their network just to throttle just doesn't make sense. Nobody is going to pay for a white-list only internet. That is fear mongering by the pro-NN side.

You call it "sabotaging", I call it "enhancing monetization powers". Either way, it's sabotaging the public's access.

If you had sane competition, maybe. But you don't, so they can do whatever they want and you'll pay for it unless you don't want internet at all.
