the net neutrality debate: there's more to it than you think
DESCRIPTION

THIS IS THE INTERNET
![Page 4: The Net Neutrality Debate: There's more to it than you think](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051512/5409dcc28d7f72384c8b45b4/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
NET NEUTRALITY IS THE BELIEF THAT ALL DATA ON THE INTERNET SHOULD BE TREATED
EQUALLY. Tim Wu, a Columbia Law professor, coined the term back in 2003.

NET NEUTRALITY NO MATTER THE SOURCE, CONTENT OR LOCATION
![Page 6: The Net Neutrality Debate: There's more to it than you think](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051512/5409dcc28d7f72384c8b45b4/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
RIGHT NOW, NET NEUTRALITY RULES THE INTERNET
![Page 7: The Net Neutrality Debate: There's more to it than you think](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051512/5409dcc28d7f72384c8b45b4/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
BUT NET NEUTRALITY IS JUST A
AN ABSTRACT CONCEPT (not a law)
BELIEF
![Page 8: The Net Neutrality Debate: There's more to it than you think](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051512/5409dcc28d7f72384c8b45b4/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
SOME WANT TO CHANGE THE RULES AND END THE ERA OF OF NET NEUTRALITY
![Page 9: The Net Neutrality Debate: There's more to it than you think](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051512/5409dcc28d7f72384c8b45b4/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
ISPS COULD CHARGE SITE OWNERS FOR FASTER DOWNLOAD TIMES ISP = Internet Service Provider The companies that bring the Internet into your home
![Page 10: The Net Neutrality Debate: There's more to it than you think](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051512/5409dcc28d7f72384c8b45b4/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
THEN THOSE SITE OWNERS WOULD CHARGE YOU MORE TO VIEW VIDEOS AND SUCH
![Page 11: The Net Neutrality Debate: There's more to it than you think](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051512/5409dcc28d7f72384c8b45b4/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
THAT’S WHAT YOU HEAR ABOUT MOST: SLOWER, MORE EXPENSIVE CONTENT
![Page 12: The Net Neutrality Debate: There's more to it than you think](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051512/5409dcc28d7f72384c8b45b4/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
BUT THERE’S MORE
![Page 13: The Net Neutrality Debate: There's more to it than you think](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051512/5409dcc28d7f72384c8b45b4/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
IT COULD ALSO MAKE LIFE MUCH, MUCH HARDER FOR SMALL BUSINESSES
![Page 14: The Net Neutrality Debate: There's more to it than you think](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051512/5409dcc28d7f72384c8b45b4/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
PREFERENTIAL TREATMENT THE END OF NET NEUTRALITY WOULD ALLOW ISPs TO CHARGE HIGHER FEES FOR SITES THEY DON’T LIKE
![Page 15: The Net Neutrality Debate: There's more to it than you think](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051512/5409dcc28d7f72384c8b45b4/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
CENSORSHIP THE END OF NET NEUTRALITY WOULD ALLOW ISPs TO BLOCK IDEAS THEY DON’T LIKE
![Page 16: The Net Neutrality Debate: There's more to it than you think](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051512/5409dcc28d7f72384c8b45b4/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
SERVICE ON THE OTHER HAND, HIGHER PROFITS COULD EQUAL BETTER SERVICE
![Page 17: The Net Neutrality Debate: There's more to it than you think](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051512/5409dcc28d7f72384c8b45b4/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
DIGITAL DIVIDE ON THE OTHER HAND, HIGHER PROFITS COULD MEAN BETTER ACCESS IN UNDERSERVED AREAS
![Page 18: The Net Neutrality Debate: There's more to it than you think](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051512/5409dcc28d7f72384c8b45b4/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
DIGITAL DIVIDE ON THE OTHER HAND, HIGHER PROFITS COULD MEAN BETTER ACCESS IN UNDERSERVED AREAS OR EXACTLY THE OPPOSITE
![Page 19: The Net Neutrality Debate: There's more to it than you think](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051512/5409dcc28d7f72384c8b45b4/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
MY POINT I HAVEN’T COVERED ALL THE ISSUES. OR COMPLETELY COVERED THE ONES I DISCUSS.
![Page 20: The Net Neutrality Debate: There's more to it than you think](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051512/5409dcc28d7f72384c8b45b4/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
MY POINT IS THAT THERE’S MORE TO THIS THAN VIDEO DOWNLOAD SPEED.
![Page 21: The Net Neutrality Debate: There's more to it than you think](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051512/5409dcc28d7f72384c8b45b4/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
MY POINT IS THAT THERE’S MORE TO THIS THAN VIDEO DOWNLOAD SPEED. I’VE TRIED TO PRESENT SOME ARGUMENTS FROM BOTH SIDES.
![Page 22: The Net Neutrality Debate: There's more to it than you think](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051512/5409dcc28d7f72384c8b45b4/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
I’D LOVE IT IF YOU WENT OUT AND SUPPORTED NET NEUTRALITY
![Page 23: The Net Neutrality Debate: There's more to it than you think](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051512/5409dcc28d7f72384c8b45b4/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
BUT AT LEAST THINK ABOUT IT. ALL OF THE ISSUES. THE GOOD AND BAD.
![Page 24: The Net Neutrality Debate: There's more to it than you think](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051512/5409dcc28d7f72384c8b45b4/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
AND THEN MADE YOUR OWN DECISION BY BALANCING THOSE ISSUES
