Senate barely passes resolution to restore net neutrality
May 16, 2018 21:57:44 #
How do you feel about that? Is that good or bad? My ignorance leads me to believe it is good. Neutrality is appealing. The fact that a Trump appointee repealed it, made the decision highly--highly--suspect. How do consumers win or lose under net neutrality or the loss of it? Who has the most to gain if Net Neutrality is outlawed? What are the possible arguments for or against Net neutrality?

The internet has always had Net Neutrality......
The new Net Neutrality rules passed in 2015, strengthening control over the internet. What can be viewed etc and were open to everything, now not so..
A few things to consider~~
Net Neutrality is the guiding principle of the internet. It preserves our right to browse freely and communicate openly over the internet.
It enables and protects free speech... It forces ISPs to provide us with open networks and disallows any discrimination against an application or content which rides over that network... Just as your cellular network shouldn’t decide who you can or cannot call, ISPs shouldn’t interfere with what you can or cannot do on the internet.... But they do think, google, Facebook just as examples..
Without Net Neutrality in place, activists won’t be able to raise their voice against oppression. Social movements will easily diminish and people won’t be able to connect with one another as easily as they do now....
The open internet allows people to share their stories and organize themselves for justice. When activists bring out thousands of people at short notice, this is because there is no big brother sitting in the back slowing down or blocking their movements.
Mainstream media usually follows its own interests and instincts, and no longer represent the thoughts of general public. Open and free internet is the only way for people to support and promote a cause, and make sure that it can be shared with the masses.
Controlling WHO gets access to the internet is f*****m, it isn’t freedom of anything anymore..
Barely passed is a concern that it did excellent..

And it was a Trump appointee that wanted it silenced, removed! Please remember that highly pertinent fact on the cascade of totalitarian movements by Trump.
