Internet has long provided the opportunity for a new comer to challenge the status quo because of net neutrality. Now we are creating a barrier of entry and it is going to be hard for new startups. American dream is correlated to equal opportunity for everybody irrespective of the background. That's what is stake at here.
- jacquesm 12y agoWhat does your 'American dream' have to do with net neutrality? It's not about America, it is about ISPs amassing power all over the world.
- vrama 12y agoElected representatives in America often portray themselves to uphold American dream (http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Dream http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Dream) ethos. But in practice they support policies that go exactly against that ethos and support gatekeeper policies like net neutrality. Yes it is a global issue. I am putting forth an argument in an American context.
