Basically if Congress does away with the ideal of network neutrality, you're probably going to see a decline in your internet service. Your email to a friend on another network might be delayed. Your Vonage service might act up (and Verizon or Bellsouth will be right there to let you know you won't experience the same problems on THEIR service). Yes, a lot of these scenarios are hypothetical. But when it comes to these companies and profits, what do YOU think is going to happen if they're given free reign to degrade access at will? This is honestly no different than common carrier regulation, and needs to be protected as such.
