The Verizon corporate twitter feed is hilarious right now. They're still desperately trying to convince people that net neutrality is a Bad Thing™.

They're also conveniently ignoring that America already had net neutrality laws. Then Verizon spotted a loophole in the law that meant technically the FCC couldn't enforce Net Neutrality, so they decided to try and exploit it to get the Net Neutrality laws disbanded so they could bring in tiered internet and open a new revenue stream.

Once colossal bitchslap from the collective internet later the de facto Net Neutrality laws get rewritten without the loophole and close off their tiered internet plans for good. Karmic justice.

"Now I'm taking these two fine-ass bitches back to my office for some 'open access.'"

FCC run the intertubes in the UK, right?
