besides a slippery slope argument is the a technical argument why it will be worse outside of the US? does the change only effect the last mile internet consumers or will this effect backbone connections as well?

i have seen a lot of stuff about the proposed FCC changes but every time someone asks about how this will effect non-US internet users the reply is always "because the USA is the best and your government will copy us"

Don't get me wrong i competently agree with the need for net neutrality, ISP's should not be allowed to throttle or dictate which data you can access or at what speed. I just want to understand the issue better and how it effects the global internet community.

I also don't think we should limit action to just the US region, if a website wants to protest let them do it for everyone to see, it might help when the fight starts in what ever country is next (apparently) but they do risk alienating global consumers who frankly don't care about US politics.
