The US Federal Communications Commission (FCC) ruled out the laws protecting net neutrality in a 3-2 vote last week. What happens next is anybody’s guess.  

What is net neutrality anyway?

Net neutrality is a popular term for protective measures drafted to maintain a free and open internet for all users. Internet service providers in the current day scenario are free to choose, block, or throttle sections of the internet, or create a tier- based internet system that costs users more to access different websites at the same speeds as they do today.
