I myself wholeheartedly support net neutrality and I'm against any control over the Internet. Cause nothing good could come from that.

Net neutrality is a bit of a special case, the vast majority of people support government control of the internet to assure net neutrality. I would normally be completely against it on the basis that you shouldn't give a government more power unless it's absolutely necessary, but in the case of the US for example where ISPs really do have monopolies in some areas without a single competitor it seems like a necessary evil.
