Cuban definitely has it right.
One cannot support "net neutrality" and still support liberty and small government. The only way to keep the Internet anywhere close to "neutral" is to keep the government out of it.
And, another freedom begins slipping away.
which freedom would that be exactly?
FCC approves net neutrality rules, reclassifies broadband as a utility
It's a good day for proponents of an open internet: The Federal Communications Commission just approved its long-awaited network neutrality plan, which reclassifies broadband internet as a Title II public utility and gives the agency more regulatory power in the process. And unlike the FCC's last stab at net neutrality in 2010, today's new rules also apply to mobile broadband. FCC Chairman Tom Wheeler laid out the basic gist of the plan earlier this month -- it'll ban things like paid prioritization, a tactic some ISPs used to get additional fees from bandwidth-heavy companies like Netflix, as well as the slowdown of "lawful content." But now Wheeler's vision is more than just rhetoric; it's something the FCC can actively enforce.

Higher taxes. Lower speeds. The same impediment to progress in broadband that Europe sees for the same reasons.
Yep. A "good day for proponents of an open internet".
How to spot confused and gullible sheep? Look for those who say they support a free and open internet while also supporting this FCC Order.

Yep, the government is here to fix it for you. In other words regulate it the way they want and tax everything they can.
