<div>I'm pretty sure the correct term is net neutrality. Somewhat short for internet neutrality. <font color="FFD700">[[User:ColinR|ColinR]]</font><sup><font color="000000">[[User_talk:ColinR|talk]]</font></sup> 02:36, 2 May 2007 (EDT)<br />

Feel free to do whatever you want with it. I'm sure you know more about the topic than I do. [[User:DanH|DanH]] 02:38, 2 May 2007 (EDT)<br />

== Google gets a free ride? ==<br />
<br />
Perhaps my degree in Computer Science is wrong, but how does Google or any other website get a "free ride" on the internet. When somebody hooks into the internet they need to buy bandwidth from the provider. I buy mine from TWC and Google has to buy theirs from somebody else. Each ISP then buys bandwidth from neighboring networks so that different regions get connected. However, since Google already paid for their connection to the internet through their ISP, how are they getting a free ride when I want to check my email?<br />

== Specifically liberal/Democratic issue? ==<br />
<br />
The most recent edit by Andy claims that this is an issue specific to liberal causes. This isn't always true - for example, (usually and historically) libertarian groups like the EFF claim to support the "idea" but argue that the track record of government involvement in technology has always been very pro-Hollywood and pro-business.

== Net Neutrality ==<br />
<br />
The idea behind net neutrality is to stop ISP's from shaping and throttling internet traffic. Although government control wouldnt really work, I think this article misinforms the readers. Right now ISPs can shape their traffic, so a site like say... Wikipedia would load faster than CP. [[User:GDurkin|GDurkin]] 00:07, 8 January 2011 (EST)</div>Admiralgrinder
