What can be worse than the major ISPs in the US? They offer last decades technology (cable) at extremely high prices (compared to other western countries), have frequent outages, questionable business practices (have you gotten your internet security package surcharge yet?) and generally make you want to move somewhere where Fiber is available. I have no doubt that they would want to make me pay even more money for being able to watch Netflix in 4k (vs their cable TV offering) if they legally could.
The cable ISPs are exactly the kind of companies that could use a little regulation under Title II, they are horrible.
My point is that government regulation is likely to make costs go up, not down, and cause a certain amount of technological lock-in as well. The history of Title II regulation of the circuit switched telephone network is an excellent example of this, and is why the FCC promises to exercise a "light touch" here.
