service providers and governments should treat
all the data on the internet equally without

of the:-
i. Content
ii. Site
iii. Platform
iv. Application
IMPLICATIONS OF NEURTRALITY

•  Web users are free to connect to whatever website


or service they want.

• ISPs(Internet Service Providers) do not bother


with what kind of content is flowing from their
servers.

• It has allowed the internet to grow into a global


network and has allowed people to freely express
themselves.
What will happen if there is no net neutrality?

• ISPs will have the power to shape internet traffic


so that they can derive extra benefit from it.

• Instead of free access, there could be "package


plans" for consumers on the OTT(over the top
services and applications) such as skype,
WhatsApp, Facebook, Flipkart, Instagram and
many more.
• Doom for innovation on the web.
