    This would fix a boatload of issues and break down Verizon/Comcast into service vs infrastructure companies.

    It will never happen.

    Both companies would put forth a staggering amount of money into lobbying to kill this on top of all the politicians they already “donated” to.

    It’s sickening.

      What’s sickening is that it’s not a staggering amount of money. Around the SOPA bullshit someone made a list of telecom campaign contributions per congressman, and most were < $10k.
