Pros and Cons
After reading more and more on the topic of Net Neutrality, I am beginning to notice that it's the private parties, in general, who's primary concern is to keep the internet free. On the other hand, big corporations are the primary publishers of tightening up on the free web. Personally I'm starting to fall more between the lines of a free net, however I do see the benefits in controlling it. For example, a controlled web might make the internet faster along with making it a safer place to be, especially for children. A tighter internet could drastically decrease the amount of mature content that minors are exposed too. Though all of this security sounds appealing, I am having a hard time with the idea that large corporations and for that matter the government can control what we can and can't post and receive. How long would it take until they go too far and began robing us of our right to Freedom of Speech.
