What's your point? Are you seriously suggesting this should be regulated?
It doesn't appear necessary at all; industry self-regulation seems to be working just fine here... (one might claim almost too well :-) )
.. let the customers draw their own consequences and conclusions based on the actions of the companies who serve them. Thankfully, Internet connectivity is ubiquitous for the most part, and this is hardly the same as essential services (those who consider it that, are fools not to have diversity).
Those un-essential Internet services increasingly carry voice services that are considered essential by many consumers, and for whom diversity is not a realistic option. Leaving them completely open to the consequences of service provider actions would be quite an innovative curve in public policy. /John
