Net neutrality is the principle that internet service providers should treat all data on the internet equally. Proponents of net neutrality laws argue that they balance the rights and duties of individuals, governments and corporations, while ensuring that the Internet continues to be an open and decentralized network. Opponents include internet companies who complain that the law would increase their costs and create barriers to the free flow of information.
@ISIDEWITH9yrs
No, treat all traffic equally and continue the openness of the internet
@ISIDEWITH9yrs
No, this would allow them to remove competition, create artificial scarcity, and increase prices
@ISIDEWITH9yrs
@ISIDEWITH9yrs
Yes, but only give priority by type (video over images) and not source (big website over little website)
@ISIDEWITH9yrs
Yes, only if it’s strictly based on a pay-per-quality model
@4T2WTMM2yrs
Internet should be a service like water, sewer and electric. Just another utility.
@53LH4W32yrs
No. The internet should be treated as a utility like it is in other countries. Our access speed is much slower than other countries and it's embarrassing.
@AWeiseyyy24Republican2 days
They’re typically private businesses, so they can do whatever they want technically, which is how it should be. I don’t think they should do it, but it’s up to them.
@98WQW2R6 days
Yes, although I don't agree, private companies should be free to make their own business decisions and the economic market will drive competition between service providers
@98VMPXY1wk
No, and dismantle the monopoly on the internment provider system
@98TC7KS2wks
Yes, a company is free to change however their service is provided as long as it is put in the TOS.
@98SHTM42wks
yes, they are the providers the have there own bottom line
@98MRP3Q3wks
Yes, but the internet service shouldn't slow down the less popular ones and keep it the same.
@98LLD6G4wks
Yes, it is private business they should be able to do whatever they want.
@98F34SC2mos
No, and all illegal immigrants should be deported
@97ZZF732mos
No if the companies want to offer different rate plans based on speed those plans should be allowed to everyone as long as they are willing to pay their bill.
@97Z76KD2mos
No, the internet should be a public utility with equal access for all.
@97XK6Q52mos
depends on how much speed difference
Yes, but not until the consumers have a choice of internet providers.
@97LMHBL3mos
nationalize internet service providers
@97KSZBQ3mos
I think there are good arguments on both sides of this issue.
@97HTGRP3mos
Let internet service providers decide, increase incentives for competition
@97H9TBS3mos
No, I'm paying for my speeds. I should get the speeds I pay for as a consumer.
@97GPQSW3mos
Speeding up access, yes, but not slowing down access.
@97GB3YG3mos
Yes, you get what you pay for.
Yes, but the federal government should deregulate internet service providers allowing for several new competitors to enter into the marketplace
Websites can already pay for faster service or more servers to handle traffic when they need it. Don't change that.
@9794GYF3mos
Yes, if you pay for a bigger share, you get a bigger share
@979LZZ63mos
No, and internet should be provided as a public service
@978VK7Y3mos
i barely know what i just read so no comment
@977GJCG3mos
Yes, but make it an option for each person using the internet.
@976VQGP3mos
No, treat all traffic equally and continue the openness of the internet. because allowing the opposite would allow them to remove competition, create artificial scarcity, and increase prices
i feel like everyone should be able to do things with there website. I do think bigger websites should get more permissions but they shouldn't be able to do things that affect the smaller websites
@97564H63mos
No, and nationalize internet companies and services.
@96VRJNM3mos
No. Data prioritization should remain in order without further breaking out the data speeds. Increasing speeds to certain websites would hamper user experience and violate speed agreements when users sign up for plans
@96STW9G3mos
No: the most popular sites are bad for people(ex. porn).
@96SS3F43mos
@96JF2W24mos
That’s up to them not the government
@96HXG2X4mos
I do not have enough knowledge of this issue to have a stance
@96H86YS4mos
Yes,but speed up access to media outlets such as Renegade Tribune and other nationalistic websites that are fighting Jewish supremacism and communism.
@96BBG8C4mos
Yes, they're a private company and can do as they please.
Internet should be a right to everyone living in America, citizen or otherwise and should be free to everyone.
Transmission rates should not be lowered only raised based on pay scale
@9645CM84mos
Yes but only if it’s restricted to pay per view model and that smaller sites are still being sped up just at different time periods at different rates
@9633RLP4mos
I have little knowledge in this field so I remain undecided
@95ZRNRP4mos
i don't really have a stance on this
@95YC33M4mos
I don't even know what this question is asking for
