A competitive disadvantage vs. who exactly?
From what I can tell, in my neighborhood Spectrum has a monopoly as the lone high speed internet provider.
Now if I want sloooower internet, I do have a few options.
But not for high speed internet.
Imo, if monopoly high speed internet providers:
a. Start slowing the internet down for certain sites that compete with them (Netflix, Hulu, etc.)...
b. Start charging an arm and a leg to access those sites...
c. Start doing the same for sites featuring content that runs contrary to political views held by said owners of the high speed internet monopoly...
Imo, this vote to do away with NN has potential to be a VERY big deal.
