Even in the U.S., there have been some major violations by small and large ISPs. These include:
The largest ISP, Comcast, secretly interfering with peer-to-peer technologies, including some of the most popular basic technologies used to distribute online TV and music (2005-2008);
A small telephone ISP called Madison River blocking Vonage, a company providing competing telephone service online (2005);
Apple blocking Skype on the iPhone, subject to a secret contract with AT&T, a company that competes with Skype in providing telephone service (2008-2009);
Verizon, AT&T, and T-Mobile blocking the functionality of Google Wallet on Nexus devices, while all three of those ISPs are part of a competing mobile payments joint venture called Isis (late 2011- +today);
and Comcast's disputes with Level 3 and Netflix over termination fees, and the appearance that Comcast is deliberately congesting its network connections to force Netflix to pay Comcast for an acceptable connection (2010- +today).

Pshhh... the free market will settle this. Ooops, looks like corps are buying politicians to ensure there's no competition. So much much for that theory. No biggie, some entrepreneurs will come along and build the infrastructure to compete. They can call it froogle fiber, or something. Surely that will work.
