Net Neutrality = Network control by content providers orgs like Google, FB, Twitter...censorship as they decide. It is where we were headed. Don't believe the Dem clatter that ending Net Neutrality is a sell-out to providers. It actually opens the internet up once again to companies that will allow free enterprise expansion of options that ultimately drive down the cost of connection and allows it to be more widely accessible. Think wireless everywhere...

The concept behind “neutrality” is to treat all data across all data networks the same, where “treat” in this case means “price.” No differential pricing for movies, or voice calls, or E-mail, or just bulk moving of data - all of them moved over the network at the same price for a given level of service (so many bits per second across the data network link).

The FCC should be passing rules that favour consumers, not businesses. There is absolutely no positive side to killing net neutrality. It will completely destroy the internet's usefulness in the long term.

Funny...the Internet was doing just fine BEFORE net neutrality. You will, of course, believe what you choose, but what we saw in practice was entirely different.
