> Consider that prior to the internet, they were pretty much created to do the opposite of what people want from net neutrality.
You can scale broadband almost infinitely. You _cannot_ scale phone service or television or radio the same way. There are simple limits on physical space and on carrier allocations that require there to be a licensing body. The FCC is required to be reasonable and non-discriminatory and broadcasters are required to serve their local communities directly. The FCC can only license broadcasters and can place no limits on receivers at all. This is because these airwaves collectively belong to the people.
It was created to serve these purposes. None of these are the "opposite" of net neutrality in any way whatsoever.
