Not to put a fly in the soup, but don't utilities charge different rates for different customers? for Example PG&E might have one rate for residential, one for small biz and one for large biz?
Not to say that net neutrality is different but comparing it to utilities may not be appropriate given diff classes of customers are granted different kinds of rates and service.

- rdl 10y agoThey do charge discounts for certain types of equipment (cars, medical devices). I don't think there are any differences between equipment vendors, though.
