WHAT IS NET NEUTRALITY AND HOW DOES IT AFFECT THE INTERNET?
Net neutrality is the principle that governments should mandate internet service providers to treat all data on the internet the same, and not discriminate or charge differently by user, content, website, platform, application, type of attached equipment, or method of communication. For instance, under these principles, internet service providers are unable to intentionally block, slow down or charge money for specific websites and online content.The term was coined by Columbia University media law professor Tim Wu in 2003, as an extension of the longstanding concept of a common carrier, which was used to describe the role of telephone systems. A widely cited example of a violation of net neutrality principles was the Internet service provider Comcast's secret slowing ("throttling") of uploads from peer-to-peer file sharing (P2P) applications by using forged packets. Comcast did not stop blocking these protocols, like BitTorrent, until the Federal Communications Commission ordered them to stop.
So, what this means is that you can easily access any website without the owners intentionally restricting views on their site and slowing your access in a bid to charge you. This is a good thing in its entirety until recently when things began to change, when the same federal communications commission decided they'd want to kill net neutrality (The end of net neutrality is officially set to come this spring), this would ruin all the privileges we have enjoyed since it's introduction and take us back to the times when accessing the internet was a herculean task and costs alot to do so. To add to the menace, we are going to lose privacy we have enjoyed, the owners of the sites, would decide the speed to accessing their sites as well, who would want all this?
IP EXCHANGE AND THEIR SOLUTION
How would IP EXCHANGE help as it concerns the challenge I mentioned above that would soon take over and disband the privilege of net neutrality and how we access the internet this 2018 and years to come?
IP EXCHANGE (IPSX) believes that the future of economy and Internet will be a fully distributed network, enabling users and actors from all sectors to securely and directly exchange content, without sharing it with corporations or other middlemen and 3rd party service providers.
In this direction, IPSX allows all the actors to participate in the internal economy of the ecosystem and provides a way of supporting the decentralized vision, shared economy and generating revenues. Of course, we will support and encourage the development of other technologies, many of which have gained significant traction in recent years.
Better data-sharing technologies are necessary, and in order to allow data sharing in an open and censorship free environment, the IPs are required, as the backbone of Internet protocols.
Taking into account the ongoing development of IPFS, Swarm and other solutions, the time for fully decentralization seems to be within reach.
Eventually, the blockchain networks will become more scalable, more efficient, and will include a fully functional network of micropayment channels. The IoT devices will become easier to integrate and communicate with, and a larger volume of IPs will be available, thus allowing free internet. This concept of free internet we not only mean it in terms of upfront payment, but also free of all the restrictions, censorships, privacy thieves and sensitive, personal information data
buyers.
IPSX will provide the easiest way for users from all over the world to help the Internet in becoming a fully decentralized and free of the actual less fair interests of different actors, by sharing IPs in an easy and totally transparent way among worldwide users and providing the fuel of truly decentralization for the Internet.
WHY YOU SHOULD INVEST IN IP EXCHANGE ICO?
1. The future belongs to organisations and projects that would grant autonomy and power to the ordinary man in the street. An example is substratum, but the value and the extent of privilege it grants is restricted as opposed to what IP EXCHANGE would provide.
2. The value of the tokens are very cheap as compared to what it'd be after the ongoing ICO and I'd advice you don't miss out on it.
3. You'd enjoy the privileges it provides and also enable create a more decentralized internet for everyone at the comfort of your home and how you want it to be.
4. As a VPN provider you will be able to integrate your system with IPSX SDK to let your clients choose from millions of IPs from all around the world. This would increase the adoption and use, invariably increasing the value of the tokens.
5. You will be able to share your device’s IP address or as a DataCenter to share a full range of unused IPs to win real-time FIAT exchangeable IPSX tokens in a safe way (all connections will be logged in the blockchain).
