Life Without Net Neutrality. Think About It.

My comments below are from 2008. This world this image predicts has largely come into reality.

 

-----------------

Why is Net Neutrality so important here in the U.S.?

 

Imagine if the Internet service was billed the way AT&T, Sprint or Verizon charges for your mobile phone service.

 

Imagine if the Internet service was billed the way Comcast, Cox, Charter or DirectTV charges for your television service.

 

Imagine if you had to pay for every single message you sent on AIM or MSN Messenger.

 

Imagine if every e-mail message you sent required a digital stamp for 25¢.

 

In a world without Net Neutrality everything is a la carte, nothing is included. Everything is metered, pay as you go. Is that the world you want to live in?

 

There's a reason why every highway is not a turnpike.
