or satellite.

holes mean that data information is really sucked up in a void

restrictions on the Internet.

the “Four Freedoms”
‣ In 2006, Net Neutrality hit mainstream with the musician Moby appearing at a
Capitol Hill press conference.

POLITICS AND NET NEUTRALITY
‣ Most democrats agree with net
neutrality and republicans
disagree with it. Republicans
are telling Obama that net
Neutrality laws are harmful
(Karr 2009).
‣ Let it be known the net was
neutral since its beginning. The
way the internet is now is the
way it always has been. Our
stance is it should stay this
way.

14. TEXT
RELIGION AND NET NEUTRALITY
‣ Under the Bush administration, the
religious right blog and evangelical
social networking lines were withering
away.
‣ Without Network Neutrality, leaders of
all religions would have harder times
reaching out to people outside their
normal congregation
‣ Huge controversy was unleashed when
Comcast blocked the King James Bible.
Comcast was also accused for
suppressing Christians in China by
blocking online programs and other
organisations from reaching China’s
people

15. TEXT
LEGAL ISSUES
‣ Who has the right to hold the reigns to the Internet? Do the
telecommunication companies own the Internet?
‣ The answer is no. Telecommunication companies are merely a means to
an end. In other words, they are merely the gateway to the Internet;
they don’t own the Internet themselves.
‣ Telecommunication companies should be concerned with providing the
best product to their customers rather than limiting their output. If
they decide to change the current system, assuredly the people would
not stand for it, nobody wants a regulated Internet (Press 2006).
‣ For fair market competition, internet service providers should be able to
facilitate a similar experience for a similar price across the board,
otherwise connecting to the internet will become a monopoly scheme
directed towards the highest bidding telecommunication company that
provides the best plan.

16. TEXT
CONCLUDING STATEMENTS
In conclusion, the Internet should be a neutral place
for all of its users. Not all cars are created are the
same, but all should be allowed on the highway. The
same is true with Internet traffic. File sharing and
increased usage, as well as profits are all issues to the
Internet corporations. What this is about, though, is
the consumer. It’s the consumer that the corporations
should cater too, and it’s the consumer that counts.
