If by targeting DDoSes you mean rate limiting all UDP (because some UDP
is bad), then I would expect that policy to be published on a provider's
website so that folks using UDP would at least have the option to
research and know this info before signing up or agreeing to a service
commitment. Similarly, application developers could point to a
provider's policy when designing their applications or assisting users.
Even if Net Neutrality is dead, I believe the "Restoring Internet
Freedom" order is still a thing in the US.

targeting QUIC, they're targeting DDoSes.

Yes, this is a very prominent reason for Net Neutrality. Too bad the
FCC killed that out from under the people and companies that would
utilize it to develop new applications.
