Those arguing for net neutrality should not do it based on the idea that it's an essential commodity. I think the best way to win this argument is around how ISPs often hold monopolies.

Some people have made this argument, but it always seems to return to end-of-the-world scenarios and labeling the internet as important as water. A lot people don't agree with that. Everyone knows they don't have options when it comes to ISPs. Use that aspect and tell them that they now hold even more power.

That's personally how I see it. I wont support the repeal of net neutrality unless the monopolies go away.
