The FCC regulation of ISPs isn't expected to right every wrong in the technology sector; the only US laws those cases might have transgressed are anti-competition/monopoly, regulated by the FTC. You've not provided any support for ending the regulation of ISPs as common carriers.
Netflix throttles AT&T and Verizon customers. Net Neutral.
They've limited the bitrate/quality for the benefit of the consumer, since those ISPs have low monthly bandwidth limits. This allows them to watch more video before they hit their bandwidth limits, something most would probably find to be a desirable tradeoff.
