As an analogy, look at it this way. If you buy a pair of shoes, should the shoe company be able to tell you what day of the week you can wear them? That’s basically what the FCC wants to happen with the internet. You can help stop that.
What is net neutrality? Net neutrality is a current policy which prevents your internet service from controlling how the internet is used. The FCC wants to end that policy, thus allowing your cable or phone company to control what and how internet content gets to your phone or your home. You pay for your internet service, why should someone tell you how you’re able to use it? Companies which send internet content pay to use their internet service to send that content. Why should someone be able stop or slow down what they pay for?
