Live by the sword, die by the sword. This is the danger of increasing regulation; the blade cuts both ways. You may think that Net Neutrality is about taking on big companies, but I guarantee that in just a few short years their smart legal teams will be using the regulation to increase each other's legal bills and to squash smaller competitors [1].
