By now we are all invested in the internet on some level. We enjoy our streaming video services binging out watching Ozark, La Reina Del Sur, or Stranger Things on Netflix. Maybe you spend your time locked on The Big Sick or The Man In The High Castle on Amazon Prime escaping the humdrum of the norm. Many of us even endeavor to open our own online business and make some extra cash, hoping to hit it big so you can run from the plantation and become that free slave that you've always dreamt you would be. Yes, the world wide web has opened bastions of opportunity or ways to just veg out and forget about your worries and indulge your senses if only for a little while.
But, have you heard of Net Neutrality? If you are reading this post you probably have. Well it looks like Net Neutrality may be coming to an end. You see, your former president, Barack put in place blocks to allow to Net Neutrality be preserved. What happens without Net Neutrality? Without Net Neutrality internet service providers will be able to charge internet companies for faster “lanes” of service. Smaller companies, that cannot afford to pay the higher rates will be relegated to the slow lanes. You probably won’t have to worry about the big boys like Amazon or Netflix since they have the funds to pay for the "fast lanes" for the entertainment you enjoy. But, your online business will probably be tossed to the curb. Tim Oliver best explains what the loss of Net Neutrality means best.
