I don't think Net Neutrality will be nearly as big an issue as people are scared about. Under the current way of looking at our telecom infrastructure - yes, it will be an issue. But consider this: within a few years (or maybe a decade or two), telcos will no longer have their "power play" of Landline/Cellular/DSL/Cable. It will be high-speed internet and super-ultra-high-speed-internet. The high-speed will handle all our voice (and cellular, as WiFi networks replace cell towers), and the super-ulta will handles all our HDTV needs. So Telco's will charge consumers out the ass for the super-ultra, leaving companies alone. Which is really the way it should be.
