1. Do we expect them to include pro gay pro choice apps or is that off limits too?

4. Only if they remove pro gay, pro choice apps like Grindr, or Edge GNR
As much as I despise that app, I despise the idea that a CORPORATION should have veto power over political messages even more.

Either it stays, or all politically and socially controversial apps should be removed. A corporation should NOT be filtering the message simply because they don't agree with it.

Net neutrality goes both ways.
