No. That's what governments tell people so they get their support. It is always "for their benefit". But it is not.
What needs to be done is deregulate everything. If I am disatisfied with my provider because they censor what I can browse online, I will leave. As there is no single businees in the Earth that likes to loose customers, then they will not censor the content I am wanting to consume.
Obviously government will not legislate against themselves.
Must be nice to be able to choose between different providers. Most of us don't have that choice. Your argument is bunk.

Oh but it is for the benefit. The fact that you and "World Alternative Media" have been so easily tricked by the flimsy free market logic used in Verizon's propaganda campaign is hilarious. Most people don't have a choice, specifically every rural community in the fucking country. The repeal of net neutrality is REALLY BAD.
"Obviously government will not legislate against themselves." Our government regulates against itself all the time. Your probably thinking of a cartoonish monarchy with an absolute top-down power structure. Here in the USA, we have an idea called the "three branches of government" which apparently you never learned about.

Of course: legislative, executive and the judicial power. Those powers are never isolated and will act taking into count personal interests from the other two powers.
In your country it seems to be common that President and the House of Representatives or Senate or whatever it is called, are ruled by different parties. When the President is from the Democrat party, then the Senate is ruled by Republicans and viceversa.
Have that make more difficult for presidents to achieve what they wanted? Like bombing countries or the Obamacare? I can see that it wasn't.
Internet access is not a public utility. If people want access to the network, they should pay for it. Providers pay some people to keep the cable operating. It is their cable. It is their choice to ask the money they wanted.
