Obama Says He Supports Net Neutrality

October 30, 2007

The Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama has come out and state dthat he is a strong supporter of net neutralityWashington (dbTechno) - The Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama has come out and state dthat he is a strong supporter of net neutrality.

He spoke during an MTV-sponsored town hall event with the legislator of Illinois. He stated that he is a “strong supporter for net neutrality.”

A member of MoveOn.org posed the question to Obama which spawned this very interesting answer.

For those who do not know net neutrality means that there will be equal access to all on the internet. This means that everyone will be able to access every web site on the internet. Some ISPs have been pushing for a more rate-based plan which could restrict users from accessing certain types of content online in their plans.

Obama though is a strong supporter of net neutrality. This means that he will be pushing to keep ISP plans the way in which they are now which allow for the freedom of the user to be able to access anything gat anytime as long as they have a net connection.

There should be non restrictions is what Obama is saying. If you have the internet, everyone should have fair game at what they can access.
