Thought of a great analogy. Imagine it's the nineteenth century, and by whatever coincidence the dominant electric power delivery company actually also still owns a thriving kerosene delivery business, i.e. for lamp oil. They don't care if you run sewing machines or home appliances at the going rate for electricity - but every night after dark, they determine whether you're streaming electricity to power your light, and if so they intermittantly dim the power (to well below the level you're paying for), expressly to give you an awful experience and retard the adoption of electricity. Just so they can make more money selling lamp oil.
Net neutrality simply means they are not allowed to go into homes and figure out what you're using your electricity for, and try to charge you more based on that usage.
