Net Neutrality and You.

Net Neutrality is something that is going to effect Me, you, and everyone else using a computer(and arguably people who don't). It's going to effect what you see on the interent, your quality of service, how much you pay, and what your paying for. With the defeat of Net Neutrality, Special interests and Big networking companies(special interests and the companies are one and the same) essentially own the internet more so than ever before. They have a vision of a tiered service, where they make users pay more for different grades of service(sounds a lot like what he have already.... allow me to explain). The main difference is that now... the internet service providers now have the power to essentially limit the bandwidth to certain websites of their choosing. So basically, If you paid 30 dollars/ month for the joe blow low speed internet access. You would consequently only have access to the most basic of websites. They may limit access to youtube because your not paying for a high enough tier of service. Intelligent on their part but BAD for you. This doesn't just stop at youtube, the problem is much larger than that, This is giving them the power to do many other exploitive things.
