1. Google other big content providers are lobbying for net neutrality.

That includes Yahoo, EBay, and Microsoft.

Telcos and cable providers want these content providers to pay them
extra or get relegated to second-tier "best effort" levels of access
to their customers. The providers would give preferential treatment
to their own services and content. Naturally, the content providers
are against this.
