The FCC's decision to repeal net neutrality has pitched the technology industry and consumer groups into a state of fury – unless you’re an ISP that is.

Broadband providers, who could be forgiven to be rubbing their hands with glee at the thought of the money that’s now theirs to make are, have been (for the moment at least) statesman-like on the issue – promising nothing will change. But ranged against them are just about everyone else: the tech giants, the internet pioneers, consumer groups and just about every other member of society – 22 million objections to the decision were received by the FCC, objections that were rejected out of hand by the commission as they dismantled the regulatory apparatus to give the broadband providers what they want.
