Simply put: Yes.

Not simply put:

It is hard to answer this question as I think we might be approaching the point of fundamental disagreement. I do not believe the constitution or the bill of rights was intended to nor should have forced one non governmental entity to provide you with services. I think the bill of rights explicitly states that the gov't does not have that power, certainly not the federal(see 9th & 10th amendment).

If you believe you have a fundamental or natural right(same thing?) to the goods or services offered by another person(net neutrality), I implore you to seek change to the constitution via the amendment process rather than a congressional bill or executive fiat.

Using the constitution as an argument for rights at the same time as you suggest bypassing the constitution to secure the right is unsettling and strange to me.

If you wanted to enforce net neutrality via amendment I would still disagree, however, I would much rather have it happen that way than how it is happening these days. That begs the questions, does it matter how it happens?(Yes) Is the end result the same?(No) If we bypass legal means to an end in something we favor, we set a precedent for something to happen the same way that we do not favor. It does not matter whether we are talking about slavery, marriage, war, healthcare.
