Confused...I thought NN was allowing throttling some over others to make it “governmentally fair”...so repealing what Obama did would remove such limits, right?
Can someone explain, as the title of this story is purposefully confusing. Orwell would understand.
Right, this is very confusing.

No. Net neutrality required internet service providers to treat all data the same. Now ISPs will be able to give preferred status to data streaming from firms willing to pay for that status.
Some Internet users suck up lots and lots of bandwidth downloading movies and things, and some users are very light bandwidth users. NN would allow providers to charge EVERYONE more equally to spread out the cost of the heavy users to everyone. Sort of a Communist approach.
Also, providers currently throttle heavy users to try and protect the rest of us. NN would disallow that... instead providers will have to charge all of us extra so they can pay for services to this subset of customers.
