Just a reminder, the "major questions doctrine" is bullshit, used by the partisan conservatives to ignore the plain text of a statute whenever they want to engineer an outcome. Don't pretend that this is anything less than make-believe judicial bullshit.

I'm glad my ISP supports net neutrality, in addition to providing 10Gbps symmetric fiber for cheaper than 1Gbps with Comcast or AT&T. https://www.sonic.com/transparency

IMO internet service would be better if we had more small(-ish) local ISPs like Sonic, and more municipal ISPs (ran by the city, usually as a non-profit), instead of most people in the USA being forced to connect through one of just a few very large companies that don't really care about you as a customer.

The future of net neutrality is already decided, has been for a while. The only question is when. Does NN end now or later. We already let the wolves in.
