What is Net Neutrality ? | Is Net Neutrality Good or Bad ?
Net Neutrality is the concept that the companies that provide you with Internet access should not shape the way you use the Internet. For instance, Comcast Products and Services or Verizon should not be allowed to block you from reaching a website (cnn.com), stop you from using an application (Skype (product)/Netflix (product)), or make certain websites/services work faster than others.
In general, the way the Internet currently functions is what Net Neutrality seeks to preserve. Internet access that works like this is what Net Neutrality proponents work to prevent: http://www.wired.com/epicenter/2...
In general, companies that provide Internet access (cable companies like Comcast, cell phone companies like AT&T Wireless Services (company)) are against Net Neutrality, while companies that do business on the Internet are in favor of it (Amazon.com (product), Netflix, Skype). In general, Democrats and groups like the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), Electronic Frontier Foundation, Public Knowledge (my employer) and Free Press are in favor of Net Neutrality. Republicans, the Cato Institute, the Tea Party, and anti-regulation groups like Americans for Prosperity tend to see it as unnecessary regulation.
Several prominent web pioneers, including Tim Berners-Lee and Vint Cerf, are in favor of Net Neutrality. It appears fewer web pioneers are against it, but there are some, including Bob Kahn and David Farber.
Now you guyss thinks if net is not neutral than how it will effect us ? We will use our net as we are using now..
But friends it is not like this for an example -:
If you're using an Airtel connection and Airtel taken money from Bing and they stop your access to use any google services so that all traffic will go to Bing.
How you will feel that time ? Band na....
There are many reasons that can effect us for example if your ISP (Internet Service Provider) wants you to use the apps & websites which they want even if you not like them and they charge money from you if you want to use your Favorite app or Website than...
That's why net neutrality is compulsory for all of us.
Peoples who says that net neutrality is bad they are dumb man in Internet....
