Net neutrality defenders actually fine if Internet users decide what goes fast

One section of AT&T’s network neutrality comments has caught the attention and earned the ire of some fans of neutrality regulations.

It has to do with the idea that in some cases, some of its customers might chose to, say, dedicate more of the bandwidth that they pay for to certain applications, effectively degrading others.

AT&T cites support for such "user-directed prioritization" on the part of high-profile net neutrality advocacy groups like the Center for Democracy and Technology and Free Press. And there's good reason for that: Those groups are perfectly okay with the idea.
