This is good news, despite what some might think about "freedom of speech". At question here is whether Comcast can control its own product/service, and place stipulations on how customers will use what they buy. It's a two-way street, and it's complicated, due to prior FCC regulations, but the idea that the government should step in to tell Comcast that it cannot make rules regarding file sizes, and content is absurd. If customers don't like what Comcast offers, there are other providers who are ready to gain market share.

So-called "Net Neutrality" is merely a cozy catch-phrase to hide government regulation and egalitarianism. Let the market cater to consumers and sellers of products prosper or fail based on how well they fulfill consumer demand, not political demand. No one has a "right" to internet service. This ruling is in Comcast's favor, but it has nothing to do with principle or the fact that the US Constitution doesn't give the feds the power to even CREATE an FCC. It merely has to do with the laws that have been written, and whether they cover Comcast in this situation. There is a very stong chance that the Congress will write new laws permitting the kind of FCC manipulation that was struck down in this instance.
