I joked that if Facebook, Google, Netflix and the other multibillion dollar user-trackers out there shut out Pai and the FCC, their tune would change overnight.

I did not think for a microsecond anyone would be brave enough to implement it.

Kudos Cloudflare.

Facebook, google, amazon, etc all benefit from Pai's decision if they deem ISP fees affordable. It keeps competition from emerging and, with cable-like packages, would put their services in front of every Internet user.
