The Internet represents total freedom to access any information for most

American users. As a user, we also have the opportunity to put specific

restrictions on the sites we visit. For example, parents can put blocks

requiring passwords on pornographic sites so their children can’t visit

them. Schools can restrict sites that don’t relate to education. The

ability to implement these types of restrictions should represent enough

control to keep worried users content. Yet there are people who believe

that all Internet service providers should all be controlled with the same

rules and regulations. This idea of “Net Neutrality” would eliminate

certain freedoms we as Americans have. It would limit our choices of which

ISPs we use, what websites we can visit, how much we would pay, and

ultimately end our “freedom to access any information.” Net Neutrality

would jeopardize our Democracy by using government regulations and

eliminating certain freedoms that most Americans won’t stand for. America

is a land of choices because of our extreme differences; what one person

likes, another will dislike, and there is no possible way everyone will be

happy with only one choice. But with our capitalistic ways, a neutral

Internet doesn’t seem too far out of the picture and heated debate will

likely happen for the next couple of years.
