Part of the problem is that "the internet" has not provided a technical solution yet to the claimed problem (the laziness and shiftiness of ISPs not upgrading simple crossconnects is bs though).
If someone wants to stream netflix, youtube or grab something from a torrent why not have a content agnostic(safe harbor) block cache distributed around the internet?
This is most concretely expressed by ipfs https://ipfs.io/ but it's an old idea -
Bittorrent itself is a limited form of it. On some level AMP from google and CDNs are trying to make up for its lack.
As long as the ISP doesn't actively force this on their users but instead its something companys and people actually want I think its a net good to make this a thing.
We should mature and adopt IPFS AND fight the net neutrality battle.
