Net neutrality has long been a subject of debate on the Internet. The principle is simple: Internet service providers — such as AT&T, Comcast, Time Warner Cable, and Verizon — and governments around the world should treat all Internet traffic the same. This means ISPs shouldn’t block or slow down traffic on their local broadband networks based on individual users. And they shouldn’t modify their services based on the type of traffic those users are accessing or by the type of service that’s sending the content.
