Net Neutrality

The concept of “Net Neutrality” seems simple: Internet access and content should be free from regulation, discrimination and thus corruption. If behind the invention of the World Wide Web was the philosophy that the collective of human users would make for a diverse and fair communal space of information, then that philosophy should continue to be upheld. While there are indeed many, many business aspects to be discovered and utilized through the opportunities the Internet has to offer, the base of the entire enterprise must stay fundamentally unaltered in order to avoid the possibility of the degradation of what we currently understand as free and open access.

As the United States Government seems to be teetering on fully understanding and respecting the concept of Net Neutrality, it seems ridiculously contradictory to the country’s constitutionality on free and democratic speech to not fully stand up for such a principle. Sadly, it appears that the large media conglomerates, who take any chance they can get to cash in on the American people’s marketability, may in fact be able to decipher a legal way in which they can corrupt the free space of the Internet. It seems that what needs to be done, at this point in time, is for those who know and understand Net Neutrality to inform those who do not. Possibly through the medium of the Internet itself. Before it is too late.
