    Though I sure would bet on many complaints from people if it happened, I honestly think that they should go all out in their protest. If Netflix, Facebook and other top companies slowed to a crawl on that day, I bet that would get much better attention. Maybe with a warning on the front page or a pop-up stating that this is what would happen if the FCC won't keep things in check. I think that the companies are probably too chicken to ruffle any feathers though.

    The Right Way to Fix the Internet.

    Hmmm, any so-called "right way" to fix anything usually gets vetted over long periods of time by the experts who adopt the best practices. So, we shall have to see how this one plays out over time. Call me skeptical! If it serves the needs of the many, and reduces pricing, it has a chance, but not if it only serves the needs of the few and greedy - a balanced approach should be a winner for Net Neutrality, but will take time to scrutinize to assure it works for all.
