Network neutrality is the idea that internet service providers (ISPs) should treat all data that travels over their networks fairly, without discrimination in favor of particular apps, sites or services

The FCC will meet on October 19th to vote on proposing Title II reclassification that would support accompanying net neutrality protections

Did companies ever actually do anything after net neutrality went away? I still think it's a great thing to have but just genuinely curious if anything really happened cause I didn't notice much.

I'm not sure if it counts, but after net neutrality went away, some phone companies made it so that watching some services didn't count against your data. I think it might have been TMobile, they allowed unlimited data for HBO or something similar.
