everyone takes Internet for granted, thinking that Internet is untouchable. Well it isn’t, Net neutrality is the idea that your cellular or cable Internet provider should treat all websites and services the same. Big companies like AT&T, Verizon, and Comcast want to charge websites for faster reception time. I think that the Internet providers should treat all data equally. Internet in its entirety is not broken nor is anything wrong with at the moment but The Federal Communications…

Comcast intentionally reduced the speed that…
