11. The net itself should be a public utility

The internet pathways - be they cross coutry fiber, microwave links, last mile to the home - whatever - should be free (i.e., taxpayer funded) or low cost and should be available to everyone and should be as fast and unlimited as technology will allow.

Then, all of the content is what would generate the revenue and is what people should pay for. That would stimulate innovation and explode the internet economy.

Allowing those who "own" the physical infrastructure to call the shots in terms of speed, connectivity, limits, etc. will inhibit free enterprise, jeopardize free expression and open things up to the control of that content by the provider. Goodbye freedom.
