This is the way the Internet ends: not with a bang, but DPI - Ars Technica
ISPs want to avoid becoming a low-margin "bit pipe"—a dumb communications network that just enables companies like Google to make bazillions of dollars.

Next Up for Nationalization: the Internet by Phil Kerpen on NRO Financial
Network neutrality, or net neutrality, is the beneficent-sounding name for sweeping new government regulatory power that would prohibit Internet service providers from innovating in their own networks. This could lead to much less broadband investment by private companies, and could potentially force government subsidization, control, and outright nationalization of the Internet.

Introductory Remarks from Innovation '08
Richard Bennett opposed net neutrality - "I'm opposed to net neutrality regulations because they foreclose some engineering options that we're going to need for the Internet to become the one true general-purpose network that links all of us to each other, connects all our devices to all our information, and makes the world a better place."
