But it's a foot in the door: what's stopping the FCC from later saying "under the authority legitimized by our net neutrality ruling, ISPs are hereby ordered to block traffic to the following conservative websites"? Hint: nothing.

And what's to stop the leftists who run some of the major ISPs from throttling FR traffic (or blocking it outright) until FR pays a huge amount to them?

Nothing!

Please. The only thing ISPs have ever done that comes even remotely close to blocking access to sites is Comcast’s throttling of Bittorrent traffic at peak hours.

The argument that government needs to step in now to correct a situation that has never happened is false on its face.
