no longer NEUTRAL???!!

I would be nice if downloads were faster but with the limited bandwidth and limited access to areas of the internet, I would oppose to net neutrality. As stated, "Consumers choices would be limited and the Internet would be a private toll road to be auctioned off by companies like AT &T." (Orlowski, Net Neutrality). I believe that with the money that we pay monthly for our access online, we should not be limited with our choices. Eliminating Net Neutrality could potentially take away the advantage of searching for valuable and great information. I think it would greatly impact a lot of people who rely on Google or the internet much.

The freedom of expression would also be excluded which is an important aspect that is highly seen throughout the internet. It brings the ideas and words from people all over the world and I think we would be losing a lot if we rid the internet. There’s a limit to how much control should be used and the example of AT&T was a great example of what SHOULD not be done.
