It doesn't matter how much "abuse" there is, a regulated internet would be terrible.

Oh, it's already in place. The New World government and their alien puppeteers carefully control all of the information you receive....

Without Net Neutrality, the internet will be hobbled, handcuffed, and turned into an arm of status quo.

Shall we start our venture in acquiring internet pay-by-click stock? I would hate to be the one to write the tracking software for that kind of a mess!

Without some regulation the internet will selfdestruct just like the financial crisis showed. Criminal elements will simply take over.

Control of bandwidth and whether a server will allow your request to pass is completely up to the server and the server admin. Because these servers are ran by businesses and businesses have conflicts, this cannot be stopped. Any effort to do so would be a wasted effort unless you plan on completely remaking the internet.
