Should the Internet be regulated, and if so, how? In December 2017, the Federal Communications Commission voted to repeal "net neutrality" rules that had been adopted in 2015. (A period of public comment followed, and the repeal took effect in June 2018.) Net neutrality is a broad term that refers to the idea that Internet service providers (ISPs) must treat all data on the Internet equally rather than blocking, slowing, or otherwise interfering with access. Supporters of net neutrality argue that it is essential for preserving the openness of the Internet and preventing ISPs from censoring content or charging unfair rates. Opponents of net neutrality disagree, arguing that ISPs have not impeded the flow of data on the Internet and that the government should not regulate it. Should net neutrality be preserved? |
