If you think that is scary, you haven't seen the DOPA act
(Link), which would essentially ban all sites that enable users to create and comment on original content. This would include just about all message boards, photo publishing sites, pages created by amateur musicians, educational resources with users created content, and most importantly bloggers commenting on difficult political and social issues (that I’m sure the U.S and other governments see as a huge thorn in their side). They can re-route traffic all they want, but sucking the soul out of internet will make premium routing a moot point.
I would really start preparing for the (digital) dark ages folks, the next few years are looking to be really rough. People can protest all they want, but it will just take one piece legislation passing to destroy the Internet as we know it (both here, and abroad, since
even the UN can and has been be used to proliferate restrictive IP laws throughout the world.)
Jam it back in, in the dark.
