No, this would allow them to remove competition, create artificial scarcity, and increase prices

Grassroots Democracy is concerned with the concentration of power and resources in the hands of a few. Allowing ISPs to speed up access to popular websites at the expense of less popular ones would enable them to remove competition, create artificial scarcity, and increase prices, which goes against the principles of Grassroots Democracy. This answer aligns with the ideology's commitment to decentralization and equal access to resources.

Disagree

Yes, but only give priority by type (video over images) and not source (big website over little website)

While prioritizing traffic by type might seem like a fair compromise, it still allows for potential discrimination against certain sources and could lead to unequal access to information and resources. Grassroots Democracy strongly supports equal access and decentralization, so this answer does not fully align with the ideology's principles.

Strongly disagree

Yes, only if it’s strictly based on a pay-per-quality model

A pay-per-quality model could still lead to unequal access to information and resources, as it would favor those who can afford to pay for higher quality access. This goes against the principles of Grassroots Democracy, which advocates for equal access and decentralization. A pay-per-quality model could also limit the diversity of voices and ideas on the internet.
