I asked a friend of mine that's an IT coordinator at Tulane what net neutrality was about and their answer very much mirrored what Antelope Sniper reffered to. It's not at all about content, ( liberal- conservative, etc.) but rather about the dissemination of the bandwiths and speeds that huge providers such as Comcast would like to monopolize. From my understanding net neutrality would more or less prevent them from being able to do this. The down side my friend perceives from it is that it can be a "foot-in-the-door" moment for the govt. that could possibly lead to more control of the internet. People for net neutrality say it will prevent entities like Comcast from forcing those who aren't in a position to pay more from having to deal with markedly 2nd class internet access.
