This blog seems pretty biased. It's all afraid that... the FCC says ISPs have to have a consistent report to users on what their services are? There's a lot of scare-mongering fear of the government, a definite streak of bias to me throughout.
The pretense that Public Access TV is "the best analogy to the internet we can think about with modern technology" seems absurd. Broadcast television has programming, must select what to show during the air, an enormous constraint, and Public Access TV makes use this limited spectrum and scheduling. Trying to use it to model what we should compel of random private service providers seems absurd beyond measure to me, & wholly unapplicable.
I present some arguments in my own reply to this parent, talking about what essential internet services are. So far, we have seen no instances of people who have been denied access to internet transit carriers, to my knowledge. AWS might kick you off, but that's a very high level service. If you literally can't get your couple of hosts connected, that becomes more an issue, but that doesn't seem to be an real issue so far.
