The ISPs do claim a right for creating a tiered Internet, which the opponents claim is discrimination and impacts negatively on the neutrality of the Internet. By creating a tiered Internet service all that the ISPs are doing is creating a differential pricing dependant on what flows through their pipes. This is akin to the US Postage Service, where there is a difference in cost of mailing a postcard and sending a heavy parcel like a bicycle. If such a tiered service was not there the cost of mailing a postcard would go up several times making it unaffordable for many. The principles of a free market call for allowing business enterprises to charge varying prices for different services, and demanding that there be legislation to make restrict this is unfair to the business enterprises involved in providing Internet Services. Demands for net neutrality are therefore unfair to the ISPs and for many of the ordinary users of the Internet.

Innovation within the Internet is a requirement for its development, of not the Internet, is likely to stagnate at current levels. ISPs innovate to develop the Internet so that they can remain competitive. It is through these innovations that new features and services become available to the Internet users. Net neutrality hinders such innovation and new features, which come at a cost to the ISPs. So calling for net neutrality is tantamount to calling for the stagnation of the Internet. Preserving net neutrality lacks credibility for it will lead to extra costs for the ordinary users.
