I'm pro net neutrality and all for getting it on the books.

But has any company broken net neutrality since it was repealed? I haven't seen some of the stuff we expected. Maybe they wanted to lay low on it but like Comcast hasn't restricted Netflix and pushed out 10x for Peacock stream or anything. I'm sure some stuff would go down eventually. But curious if this has happened

The way they have done it is not by restricting other services directly, but by continuing to apply bandwidth/quotas to them while bypassing them for their own services "for free"
