More like they use the fees from content providers to make service nearly free, then they'll be able to plausibly say that bringing back net neutrality will make internet service more expensive. Then, no one will want to bring net neutrality back.

Like how cell phones are "free" so it's impossible to buy one without a contract.

None of the major US carriers have contracts anymore, since the start of this year.
