Internet 1.0 will be "good enough" for most people, so only geeks will be on Internet 2.0. That's not a bad thing, but the internet of today is a way nicer place to be than the internet of the 90s was. And the reason it's nicer is because basically everyone I know is on it.

It's not hard to do at all. You can pass a law that forcibly unbundles the last mile, so dozens of ISPs can compete on even terms on the same wire.

And that's purely a political will issue, not a "we need to invent alternatives" issue.

Binge on violated the letter of the law but not the spirit. No money changed hands and any legal video or audio content provider could be zero rated if they followed the guidelines. They didn't advertise it, but there was even a porn site that was zero rated.

If a new entrant came in, they would have been on a level playing field.
