That's... that's not how net neutrality works... How are you supposed to campaign for net neutrality if your basic premise is flawed? You won't "lose access" too all these websites, your provider merely has more power to throttle wifi connection depending on the deal they offer.
-
Realistically though, even the shittiest provider won't be removing your access to google or youtube, because nobody would sign up to a provider that did so. They might have you pay extra to use full bandwidth on less well-known websites, or make you choose (cont...)

(...cont) between different streaming services (ie, pay 5$ a month for HD netflix wifi, pay 10$ a month for both netflix and prime HD wifi), or they might offer super lowcost wifi services with limited access to many sites... but they'll also be able to offer premium services.

(cont) The reason it's bad to lose NN is that rn every website is treated equally, and your provider can't offer deals throttling bandwidth of some sites instead of others... without it they can. But it certainly won't kill ALL the internet, as you're implying. Spread truth!
