Exactly. If a politician is pushing a new regulation your default position should be no. The incentives are for these people to do something even when doing something is harmful. They only focus on their intentions and not the consequences. I saw this from an early age in democrats. It took a lot longer for me to see it in republicans. They are the same though.

It'd be the same concern if the republicans were pushing it. Both are, by definition, stateists who believe in government control. 

(If they weren't, they wouldn't all run for government!)

Ask SN: Is net neutrality good or bad?

Have to offer some resistance here. The fact that this is being pushed by the democrats leave me to assume that this would create a new bureaucratic body that would control the internet. You want the govt controlling your node? Why would you want the govt controlling the internet?
