It's incredibly naieve and shortsighted of you to think that conflicting laws don't matter. They may not matter to YOU. They matter immensely to many many other interests. Also, I find it interesting you bring up water bills. You do know that in most areas the municipal water supply is a government regulated monopoly because it is considered so essential, right? It's often regulated locally because the water is drawn, used, and recycled locally. When local water use impacts a larger area, the larger governments DO get involved.

Your example is incredibly ironic because water rights laws are incredibly complicated fields involving, local, state, federal, and even international law. Thanks for helping make my point.

I suspect you're missing the point. This is not about individual consumers getting hurt (though they are). This is about very real anti-competitive practices and abuses that have already happened and will worsen without NN.

"Oh, you just opened a new store? It'd be a shame if I owned the road that led to it and blocked it off from traffic."


you just spout off a bunch of fantasy about what might happen lmao

heres how it will work

netflix will cost X in california and it will cost Y in florida

its not complicated lmao it may be for you but its not for corporations or businesses you're worried about.
