Fools who think they can protect themselves are just selfish delusional idiots. Because the evidence is clear, without laws the tyrants take over. Then impose new laws that unless you go along with the tyrants you suffer. This is what would happen with an unregulated Internet exempt of all laws.

"Net Neutrality" whose to enforce it without laws? Without laws, the IPs get together and decide Net Neutrality isn't good for them and decide they own the Internet, priced and run to suit them.

Yes u-Bob without laws, you will suffer and whose to make and enforce the laws? Certainly not the individual, companies, a committee of people who think like you or a committee of people who think your rights don't matter and their bottom line matters?

Is a Democratically elected Government the best to make and enforce laws? Until I see a better model, I vote yes.

And so far no one ever has come up with a system that works better.
