    In a common hypothetical they cite, ISPs would slow โ€” or buffer โ€”
    traffic for Netflix unless it unfairly pays for more access points,
    or โ€œoff ramps,โ€ and better quality of service.

    In truth, however, market failures like these have never happened
If one deliberately allows a path to become congested in the direction
towards a receiver, It is the peer, not the receiving network who
discards the traffic...
