Maybe? But I have a very hard time believing anyone would have associated this with NN in 2016. The current NN proponents were not going after ISPs for stuff like this under the guise of NN pre-repeal. Nobody was upset about the port 25 blocks. Suddenly all connectivity issues on the internet have become NN issues, despite the fact that NN regulation clearly had zero effect on these issues.

> Nobody was upset about the port 25 blocks. I am. I want to run a mail server from home. I want to run a web server from home. I have the up speed, but my ISP either makes it hard or puts in their terms that I can't. If nobody minds that SMTP inbound blocked, will they similarly not mind when their other favorite bi-directional communication system stops working because it is blocked? If the ends of the spectrum want to handle reputation management, open relays, spam, etc they can. Now of course I don't conflate this with the modern view of NN, simply because doing so would dilute its efforts. But, for me ideally, I would like all targets/bytes/ports/packets to be neutral in transit.
