The end of net neutrality: What it all means

http://money.cnn.com/2017/12/14/technology/net-neutrality-repeal-explainer/index.html

What exactly is net neutrality?

The net neutrality rules were approved by the FCC in 2015 amid an outpouring of online support. The intention was to keep the internet open and fair.

Under the rules, internet service providers are required to treat all online content the same. They can't deliberately speed up or slow down traffic from specific websites or apps, nor can they put their own content at an advantage over rivals.

To take a classic example, this means Comcast can't just choose to slow down a service like Netflix to make its own streaming video service more competitive, nor can it try to squeeze Netflix to pay more money to be part of a so-called internet fast lane.

Yes.....but...... The issue may ultimately end up being decided in court. Congress can also choose to pursue a legislative solution.

Ed Gillespie was no pedophile. I get what you are saying but its fcuking Alabama. They would vote for a dog on republican ticket. This is definitely a good sign
