In every city I have lived in from Arizona to Missouri to Indiana, I have always had the ability to get faster internet by paying more for it. I will be curious if someone can answer your question as to how it will affect those of us who already pay more for faster service.

Just to be clear, now companies can pick and choose the content I view on my internet connection whereas before they couldn’t? Is that correct? For some reason this issue was hard for me to wrap my mind around.

the thing is... many companies already place “limits” on your unlimited plans. They slow down your connection after a certain amount is exceeded on cell phone data plans for instance.

I just dont see what the big issue is here.

I guess some slubs at with the most basic internet plans service might suffer, but for everyone else. This might actually makes things better by freeing up bandwidth.
