The start of this conversation was in re: the current Net Neutrality
fad and various factions to get the FCC to begin enforcing it. I'm
saying the current proposals for Net Neutrality conflate many issues
into a single, wave-able banner whose advocates blithely ignore the
issues of freedom, private property and proper role of government
raised by these flawed NetNeut proposals.

I truly do believe the government that governs least governs best,
though it would be a gross misreading to accuse me of being an extreme
libertarian in anything other than Internet issues. *grin*
