Laws that violate the constituion

I don't personally agree with the argument that I'm going to provide, but I think it's a strong argument.

The total bandwidth an ISP can provide to their customers is finite. A lot of that bandwidth is taken up by streaming or huge companies, such as Netflix and Alphabet. If you are not a consumer of those big companies, your bandwidth is affected by others who use those services.

Net neutrality forces ISP's to subsidize huge companies like Netflix even though not every customer uses Netflix The cost gets passed down to the customers.

De-regulating net neutrality allows ISP's to pass the cost on to the huge content providers instead of customers.

The issue is the government isn't supposed to pick which corporations are the winners. Especially when the entire thing is about media consumption. It's not the government's job to say that Netflix has a bigger say than AT&T or Verizon.

So imagine being a small startup in the environment of net neutrality. You're competing against the other internet giants... but the government says that you have the same sized voice as a fortune 500 company on a shared network space.

I just made all that up. Consider that a devil's advocate argument..
