Net Neutrality

What is net neutrality?

It's the idea that all Internet data should be equal and Internet Service Providers should have no say in what data passes through. In my opinion, the ISP's shouldn't be allowed to charge different companies more or less for their data or to slow down, or block, access to Web sites and services they don't like.

Pros (Reasons to Keep N.N.)

Cons (Reasons to Remove N.N)

  • Economic Recovery and Prosperity
  • Free Speech
  • Fair, equal Internet usage
  • The Marketplace of Ideas
  • "Consumers will benefit from greater investment in digital infrastructure, which will create jobs, increase competition, and lead to better, faster, and cheaper internet access" - Ajit Pai
  • Be able to charge different rates, make deals, and make things hard for competition for companies such as Comcast and Verizon
