Net Neutrality

Net Neutrality is a principle that describes that no regulations by Internet service providers or the government in accessing networks can be impose on consumers that use the Internet. the FCC created regulations on wired and wireless broadband access providers. The FCC finds this regulations needed, because it believes allowing gigantic corporations to exercise unfettered control over Americans access to the Internet. according to this rules, service providers can not favor specific Internet content or prevent consumers from accessing a competitors website.
Comcast is a Internet service provider. they also provide TV stations service, this cable provider was blocking peer to peer files and slowing down their Internet service. The FCC order this cable service provider to stop this actions. companies like this one argue that net neutrality of their bandwidth will stop prioritization. which is necessary for the future innovation of the Internet.
net neutrality appear to want to protect the Internet access of Americans in being able to access what ever information that is desired. i feel that if this types of regulations are after my interest i have to agree with them. i don't want companies like comcast being able to block my files just like they did as i already mention before. i don't think i want any company able to have that power over my Internet use. also this companies claim this regulation will hinder the future innovations of the Internet, make me feel that i have to follow this companies rules in order to see new technologies created by them. i think this innovations will come regardless there is this rules by the FCC or not.
