So, ISPs should be a regulated utility, then?

  For: yes, we should have regulation that ensures net neutrality, right down to "complete ignorance of the bitstream". Against: ISP needs to cover more than just the last mile, and for everything except the last mile, competition seems like a positive thing (though potentially wasteful). So I'd like to see all physical layer providers bound to absolute net neutrality (service and contracts can never be pulled based on contet), and the last mile regulated similarly to other utilities.

  Yes! Most developed countries regulate them as regional monopolies anyways.
