Exactly, my point is that the slow/fast phraseology is the wrong phrasing fight altogether. Whenever someone counters "fast lane" with "slow lane" they are promoting the premise that the issue is 'just' about the speed of the connections.
While I care about connection speed, it's not the critical issue at the core of net neutrality. The issue is that the ISPs can choose discriminatory speeds based on any criteria they like, including censorship. And because they are known monopoly abusers, this is an especially critical issue. slow/fast ignores it entirely. It's possible this is deliberate strategy on their part, instead of just a simple marketing attempt.
I propose we take the phraseology debate to them, and use phrases like "ISP discrimination lane".
