The idea of net neutrality is to keep ISPs from treating internet traffic differently by throttling or blocking, for example. The FCC installed net neutrality rules back in 2015, but they were repealed in 2017 under a Trump-nominated chair. Republicans on the commission believed that removing what they saw to be onerous rules would lead to greater innovation. Democrats believed that repealing the rules would lead to disruptive throttling of internet traffic. Though neither scenario really came true, some point to net neutrality rules in California and the lingering threat of return at the federal level as heading off major changes that could soon be undone.

"Without Net Neutrality, companies like AT&T, Comcast and Verizon can call all the shots and decide which websites, content and applications succeed."

"But I wonder: what if Ferguson had started to bubble, but there was no Twitter to catch on nationally? Would it ever make it through the algorithmic filtering on Facebook? Maybe, but with no transparency to the decisions, I cannot be sure. Would Ferguson be buried in algorithmic censorship? Would we even have a chance to see her?This isn’t about Facebook per se—maybe it will do a good job, maybe not—but the fact that algorithmic filtering, as a layer, controls what you see on the Internet. Net neutrality (or lack thereof) will be yet another layer determining this. This will come on top of existing inequalities in attention, coverage and control."

https://bit.ly/3KEkRWW - 🔒 In 2022, rightsholders in Austria were granted permission to block various pirate site domains and IP addresses, some of which belonged to Cloudflare. This move inadvertently caused ISPs to block access to many legitimate Cloudflare customers. Following reviews by local telecoms regulator Telekom Control Commission (TKK), it was determined that this type of IP address blocking violated EU net neutrality regulations, and it will no longer be permitted in Austria. #NetNeutrality #Cloudflare #IPBlocking ⚖️ While Austrian ISPs raised concerns about the implications for net neutrality, the court's decision favored rightsholders, and ISPs found themselves mandated to block certain torrent and streaming sites, including those offering unlicensed music, scientific articles, and textbooks. This brought up the issue of overblocking and the risk of unintentional censorship. #AustrianISPs #CourtOrder #ContentBlocking 🌐 A significant shift occurred in the summer of 2022 when new blocking orders included a list of IP addresses alongside domain names. Discovery that these IP addresses belonged to Cloudflare led to an unavoidable blockade of numerous innocent sites using Cloudflare. Although initially disruptive, the long-term effect of this ruling should lead to more responsible regulation. #Cloudflare #ISP #DomainBlocking 📡 The local regulator, Telekom Control Commission (TKK), has recently stated that the IP address blocks from last August amounted to net neutrality violations under EU law. While DNS-based blocking will still be available as a method to protect rightsholders, IP address-based blocking is now considered unlawful. #NetNeutrality #TelekomControlCommission #EUlaw 💻 In an effort to preserve net neutrality and freedom of expression on the Internet, TKK clarified its stance against IP address-based blocking. Emphasizing the risks of overblocking, TKK affirmed the need to continue implementing DNS blocks, which only block individual domains, thereby maintaining legal proportionality. TKK's commitment to transparency includes the publication of all blocking decisions and affected domains.

Net neutrality

Net neutrality is the concept of an open, equal internet for everyone, regardless of the device, application, or platform used and content consumed.

The idea’s supporters think that all organizations, including internet service providers (ISPs), should treat internet data and consumers similarly. They shall not limit access, slow down access speeds, or prohibit content to serve the interests of specific users.

Since usa is literally pushing to ban their own citizens access to the internet (with penalties like 20 years in prison for using vpn - its deliberate they call it tiktok ban to make you think it is not that serious when in actuality its ban on your whole internet privacy) AND since they are in many states simultaneously trying to ban the existence of lgbt people - can you see how that would be even more horrible mix?!

How many of you would go to jail over your tumblr for "promoting gay agenda to cHiLdReN)? Assuming they don't simply ban this site as well. Don't think your straight gay hading ass is safe either, they have been pushing for p0rn bans for years now so yes indeed the government is coming to take away your tits too my dear american friends.

Guess its time to be a huge gay communist slvt on main so you got something to remember me by.
