The Indian Telecom landscape has no resemblance to the US or Europe. There is no AT&T/Comcast monopoly. Why? Because the regulator has done a pretty decent job ensuring access to voice and data stays cheap through competition.

As far as I know, in all the big cities you can choose between 7-8 major provider's. No contract. Dirt cheap access. Also worth mentioning is the existence of a reasonably large public sector ISP, with more or less a state mandate to loose money on providing access.

In such a competitive landscape how do the net neutrality arguments of the west apply? Lot of misinformed outrage imho.
