Fair enough.  Also, a new market can spring up selling VPN
 services from non - net - neutral states who want to appear as
 though they live in others.  I'm not faulting your suggestion,
 just saying it's stupid policy to enact a bad law and then allow
 some states to boast they're less bad, especially if from a
 consumer view the status quo is a better solution over
 all.

In sum I'm annoyed this is even up for discussion.  Should ve been
 a non-starter.
