Net Neutrality

Net Neutrality

A regulation recently passed by the FCC, Net Neutrality requires broadband network providers to be completely detached from the information that is sent over their networks. In essence, it argues that no bit of information should be prioritised over another. This principle implies that an information network such as the internet is most efficient and useful to the public when it is less focused on a particular audience and instead attentive to multiple users.
