In December 2017, the US Federal Communications Commission resolved to eliminate the protection that favored net neutrality. This decision was controversial, given that the Internet has become the biggest information and communication means not only in Mexico, but all around the world.

Evidently, this issue has been current for several years, and has been addressed in different ways in every country.

But, what does net neutrality mean?

It is the principle under which Internet service providers must treat the data traveling on the net equally, and neither discriminate nor restrict access or content. As a result, end users are benefited. Thus, the benefits brought about by net neutrality have, for years, led to the development and evolution of information and content, as well as the incorporation and growth of countless companies.
