with 2 comments

Some companies want to become Internet’s gatekeepers and control what can be and can’t be accessed on the Internet for a given price. Below is a video which explains what this means and how the general public can prevent this from happening.

Such sentiments are echoed by Sir Tim Berners Lee (inventor of web) in his blog post on net neutrality.

Number of websites have sprung up to prevent it from happening such as SaveTheInternet.com, SaveNetNeutrality.com, OpenInternetCoalition.com and Google’s stance on the issue.

Please share your views and ideas in the comments below. Raise your voice against this!
