How many terrible anti-net neutrality videos are going to be made?

The astroturf group claims that they made the short film to show the "dark future of government Internet regulators dropping into homes."

Last week, we reported on a wireless industry group’s laughably bad attempt at making an anti-Title II video. In it, the CTIA (the wireless industry’s lobbying arm with members including AT&T and Verizon) made their case for wireless carriers being exempt from any net neutrality rules with cringe-worthy fake actors and utterly debunked stats.

This week, we have an industry-funded group trying their hand at making a terrible anti-net neutrality video. The astroturf group (meaning a group set up and paid for by a company) claims that they made the short film to show the “dark future of government Internet regulators dropping into homes.”

Now, from what I can see in the video, the point is that the government is interrupting a woman from romancing the handsome cable guy. So, they are using the porn angle for their net neutrality argument?

Honestly, I am not sure what other point is made here that is supposed to persuade people that net neutrality is somehow a bad thing.
