Net Neutrality

The Wealth of Networks - Yochai Benkler

Yochai Benkler's Wealth of Networks served as a source of inspiration for the New Media Rights organization, studio, and website, and no doubt spurs on many advocates of new media. The Wealth of Networks discusses the implications of hundreds of millions, if not billions of people connected to the Internet who now have a chance to communicate, collaborate, and share their own thoughts and opinions as never before in history. Benkler points out that while new technologies enable a revolution of grassroots media that could compete with traditional media, the rise of this new culture is by no means a foregone conclusion. It is a thorough, academic journey into the cultural possibilties of new media, and the established industries and laws that threaten this development.

Net Neutrality

Supporting "Network Neutrality" means supporting the preservation of the fundamental principles on which the Internet was founded. The Internet was designed with no gatekeepers over new content or services. This design empowers you, the consumer and end user, to individually choose content and services for a demographic of one, rather than having content chosen for you.
