That's irrelevant (and at least I didn't invoke it) - what's relevant
is what is considered a human right by the EU.

Your whole argument is that this case is problematic because it costs
the ISP's nothing extra to provide everything, and so if they start
limiting services, they are actively blocking them. You just haven't
established that there is something legally wrong with that. You've
given some draconian what if scenarios, but some of them are already
protected by existing laws.
If you just want to say that "This sucks", then I agree with you.<G> If
you want to argue that the Internet is a public good, I can see a case,
but it's not yet obvious.
