I think most people would agree that the most fragile piece of the Internet ecosystem deserving of protection in the US is the end-user's eyeball network providing them with service. It's the component which is most often affected by monopoly providers, and where most of the hijinks have occurred. (Ad injection, http header injection, protocol inspection & blocking, etc.)
There may be problems with other large social networks and hosting providers - Facebook, YouTube, Cloudflare, whoever - but if neutral IP transit for end-users isn't available those problems seem much less important.
