Google and Facebook have been pulling huge profits thanks to pushing their dominating contents/ads without payment to net-neutrality-shackled ISPs. If ISPs could negotiate for some of that money they could invest in better connections for the end-users; Google and Facebook would enjoy smaller profits; pressure would mount to completely eliminate local franchise monopolies; new, competing ISP technologies would be developed; and all levels of government would be (properly) limited from interfering with Internet technology and services. Maybe "neutrality" is not quite the correct meaning of what was done to ISPs, and to the American public.
