Sure.
But the reason that it's as shitty as it is stems from these companies having almost unlimited power. Moving to take away what little restrictions they do have is unlikely to do anything but make everything even worse.
I'm for the big solution, I'm a communist, I'd execute them all, hand the industry over to the employees represented through Soviets.
But that's not really what we're talking about. This is a move by the Trump administration (which has a lot of members that are tied to Comcast who has been pushing for these changes) to make things worse. For today, I'm okay just saying things don't have to get shittier.

Maybe it will get even worse for end-customers, I don't know, but it seems it wasn't actually helping either if the US still managed to have more expensive connectivity than almost anywhere else regardless of whether they have net-neutrality legislation or not.
