Introduction
• Network neutrality is a principle of network
design that holds to a standard of equal
treatment to all sites and content platforms
equally.
•
Internet users under network neutrality
have complete control of what they access
and view on the internet as well as
applications used on the internet.
• Brought up in the early 2000’s, because of the
ability for network providers to block internet
applications that would bolster their
competitors.
•
Is this an act of self-preservation
guaranteed to company lending a service, or
an infringement on our internet usage?
•
Is our internet usage a given right? Do we
have rights as internet users?
