This speech was created to explain what Net neutrality is, the arguments presented by both sides, as well as the effects to the individual consumer. “The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few” when it comes to the internet Net Neutrality sounds like a bill or an act that enforces the needs of the people. In a sense Net Neutrality is for the people. I have been taking apart in extensive research on Net Neutrality and believe I have become well versed will all the aspects of the idea as well as the debates that have arisen from it. Net Neutrality affects us all because we all use the internet. Whether for work or pleasure, from our phone or our computer, the effects of Net Neutrality will be felt by all of those who use the internet.

This is what Net Neutrality doesn’t want. Net Neutrality also fights for the idea of equal internet speeds for everyone. Basically, because I want to use Netflix on a Verizon network then my speeds would lower. But if I used the same (ISP) to use Redbox then
