  Makes you shit bricks doesn't it !!!

Network Neutrality. familiar with the term ? you aren't!,then you sire have no right to call yourself a netizen ,shame on you!.seems a bit  harsh eh? well the reality is much harsher and here is why

For those who are oblivious to net neutrality it is kind of a principal which says that all the devices and users connected to the inter net should share its resources and what it has to offer with out any restrictions. suppose you pay 1000rs for a monthly inter net connection you have the right to experience the internet fully and this is where net neutrality comes into play.

As you know the amount of information that is being shared on the internet is humongous and the ISP who provides us with internet connection are saying that they couldn't handle the traffic and the sheer amount of data shared is putting a tremendous pressure on today's internet.that is why invisible data caps also called FUP(Fair usage policy) is set in place by the ISP’s in order to restrict the amount of data procured from the internet.this is already against the principals of net neutrality.

Do you remember when Comcast was restricting the bit torrent traffic back in 2008 but FCC(Federal Communications commissions ) stepped in and stopped them from doing so.well Comcast  took the case to the court and a ruling was made which gave net neutrality a severe blow,the court ruling was that  FCC cant restrict  com cast and they can do whatever they want.

So after all these years why should i be concerned ? you may ask .right now the scenario is going to change corporate ISP’s are planning to limit the amount of content that can be shared and viewed on the internet that is they are thinking about  laying out some plans which is like a DTH scheme that is watching specified amount of channels on TV for specified amount likewise visiting specified number of websites for specified amount.

So in the future you will be asked to pay extra amount of money if you are going to game online or do file sharing or worse get banned from doing both.so what can you do? well for starters you can visit  websites which allows you to contribute to the cause a simple Google search will yield you a lot of results on that .

Right now we are in the golden age of the internet. the scenario will definitely change in the coming years and we should be prepared for it .if one ISP start to cook up nonsense like this it wont be too long for other  ISP’s to follow the same suite.we should be aware of this matter and we should be prepared when shit hits the fan.
