Telemetry, privacy harvesting, consumer-as-product ToS's stem from laws that are not neutrality. Sadly we are not free of that, a common misconception I see in this topic or discussions about it.

This bill effectively reverses market specific throttling/caps, artificial broadband barriers and tiered monthly plans bundling "priority" to other shit (e.g: Verizon w/ Netflix, Comcast w/ Disney+) all actually ran a tiny bit better when purchased that way. I'll try to dig up the benchmarks from the old overclock forums. There was the infamous Netflix bitrate problem that still persists to this day depending on what ISP, app/program/browser you use to watch. That's NN stuff.

Now it's back to the 2010-2015ish ISP plans. Fixed speed, fixed price, modem/router rental fee being the only hidden cost allowed, etc. Some have monthly data limits, some don't, has always been allowed. It's theoretically a bit more difficult for them to track your VPN, but that was back then, nowadays ISP technology has caught up to that shit tremendously anyway.
