They clearly show how the issue is very important to each company. blog.netflix/2014/04/the-case-against-isp-tolls.html?m=0 corporatecast/comcast-voices/comcast-response-to-netflix Inexpensive, high speed internet is vital to our economic development. The USA has fallen way behind in terms of penetration (% of the population that has access) and speed (how fast we move data). Here is a somewhat older article from the Huffington post. huffingtonpost.ca/2012/08/02/broadband-internet-penetration-oecd_n_1730332.html Net Neutrality deals with this issue from a technical perspective, rather than an anti-trust perspective.

However, Im making an exception for this. https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/petition/maintain-true-net-neutrality-protect-freedom-information-united-states/9sxxdBgy
