I might have been living under a rock but this is the first I have heard about net neutrality but I must say the concepts and possibilities are quite frightening. In my opinion the news and everyday opinions we are exposed to are censored and molded enough by powerful people and organizations with certain agendas and influence. In no way shape or form would I want my internet experiences shaped or molded by the possibilities that would be presented if net neutrality regulation is not given to the government. While giving the government power can be a slippery slope as well in this case I find it necessary to keep the freedoms of the people available. It seems like the “best” argument to anti neutrality is it being anti-consumer and hurting potential investment. I do not like this argument because in the carrier and technology business there is an abundance of competition and money being made. Where you have competition and profits there will be innovation, research, and investment. I have displayed my opinion on this subject but below is some reading and viewing material presenting both sides of the argument for you to form your own conclusions as well.
