I also don't understand why the Net part of Net Neutrality is important. What about Paper Neutrality, or Noise Neutrality? Should I really be allowed to write my biased opinions just because I own a piece of paper? Shouldn't there be some way to force me to express balanced opinions?
"Net Neutrality" doesn't refer to journalistic objectivism.
It has to do with how packets are routed through a network: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_neutrality http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_neutrality
- byrneseyeview 19y agoBy inserting the term 'journalistic', you're refuting an argument I didn't make. I know net neutrality is not about being able to say what you want about political issues -- it's about whether a network is owned by the people who built it or the people who create content on it -- and the content guys have convinced you that it's some kind of moral struggle. Just reread the wiki article without reference to medium, and then explain to me why I should be allowed to purchase a pen and piece of paper, given that my ownership of a medium of communication would allow me to control what content is placed on that means of communication. It's a difference of degree, not kind.
