Internet providers, be it, but not limited to, Comcast, Verizon, AT&T or Charter, shouldn't be allowed to arbitrarily manipulate Internet content I've requested as it travels across their networks. All websites, applications and services should be equally accessible to the consumer and not slowed down, blocked or subjected to extra fees before it reaches my screen.

It flys in the face of freedom of speech (author & reader). Internet providers should not have the power to censor or impede the speech of any source or block or slow the receipt of such speech to the reader. Nor should they add charges for services they wish to block or impede.
