I still don't understand how you could rationalize opposing NN when you know direct consequences of not having it. Holding off for perfect solution that might never come is such a weak rationalization and you should know better than that.

Let us simplify this - you hate big telecoms. They are against Net Neutrality. Enemy of my enemy?

This isn't hypothetical doomsday, it is highly likely outcome. You are willing to risk Internet turning into walled garden in pursuit of some pie-in-the-sky free market solution. How impractically libertarian of you. Likely outcome of years of paying through the nose (think pre-VOIP international and long distance calling) will ensure... all while outcome you desire is no more likely to happen. Not unlike pouring gasoline on your house fire is not more likely to increase chances of fire department putting out the fire.

Consider this - having Net Neutrality does not make outcome you are seeking any less likely to happen.
