I'm going to make this a rather quick post because I have homework to do.
This is a new style of post that I am trying, called Open Forum. I will pose a question or idea, and I want to see as many ideas on the topic as possible. The point is to start civil dialogue among fellow Steemians. If you want to see more, show some support and I'll keep making these!
Today the FCC voted to repeal the regulations on Net Neutrality imposed by the Obama administration. To my knowledge, this bill no longer restricts Internet to the title "utility" which, among other things, grants service providers the ability to charge a customer differently based on that customer's usage.
I'd like to welcome anyone into the comments to answer the following: how will this legislation, if it passes Congress, affect the average consumer? How will it affect both large and small Internet-based companies? Feel free to share your ideas below, and respond to others. I'd love to see some civil discussion go down in my comments section!
