You want to convince conservatives that net neutrality is essential? Explain to them that without it, Comcast could block you from news from everywhere but NBC.

The conservative counter to this that regional ISP monopolies need to end so that more competition can come in and allow for more consumer choice. I thought it was a dumb argument at the time and even wrote my rep arguing as such because I had only ISP choice at the time for true broadband. Since then one company installed fiber with two others planning to offer fiber services in the area sooner or later. Unless they all conspire to price fix (which is illegal) it would be very hard for this to occur. Again not against Net Neutrality conceptually just not sure it is actually needed in practice because any ISP doing what you describe would be decimated by people leaving for the competition.
