Here's the thing that bothers me the most about a lot of the talk about net neutrality by government officials:
> If a consumer requests access to a website or service, and the content is legal, your ISP should not be permitted to block it.
Specifically "and the content is legal" is what raises a flag for me. I've seen similar phrases in nearly everything I've read coming from any government official regarding net neutrality.
If this phrasing makes it into eventual laws regarding net neutrality, it seems to me that it could easily require inspection of all traffic by ISPs to ensure the legality of traffic.
