Reinstitute Net Neutrality

Created by P.B. on January 14, 2014

For those who do not understand, imagine the internet is a mall with an entry fee. Once you pay the entry fee you can go to any store you wish and if they charge for their services you can purchase from that store.

Without Net Neutrality, you pay your entry fee to get into the mall and once inside if you want to go to your favorite store (for instance Facebook or Wikipedia) you will have to pay an additional fee despite the fact these websites are already free.

This is also true of for-pay and subscription websites such as Netflix. Even though you are already paying netflix for a service, your ISP could charge you again to utilize their service anyway.

We implore the Obama Administration to reenact net neutrality and protect the future of science, technology, expression, and liberty.
