- Federal legislators will fail to pass network neutrality legislation on broadband carriers
- Without the legislation, Internet broadband providers will discriminate against “content and competing services” they don’t like.
- Network Neutrality would stifle innovation.
- Without Network Neutrality, consumers will lose all control to decide which applications and services will be available. Much like cable television providers, could Internet providers decide which sites and services would be available? And would that mean consumers would have to choose from a menu and pay for the plan they want?
- A world without Network Neutrality could include oligopoly pricing, reduction in innovations and constraints on free speech.
