Garethp Posted October 22, 2009 Author Share Posted October 22, 2009 Sorry, I meant net neutrality Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/178574-what-exactly-is-net-neatrality/#findComment-941762 Share on other sites More sharing options...
trq Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 Considering that neutral generally means you don't lean either left or right (opinion wise), then I would assume being in a state of neutrality means much the same. You don't care either way. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/178574-what-exactly-is-net-neatrality/#findComment-941766 Share on other sites More sharing options...

nadeemshafi9 Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 is it something to do with platform independence ? Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/178574-what-exactly-is-net-neatrality/#findComment-941790 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel0 Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 is it something to do with platform independence ? Why don't you read the article I linked to? Network neutrality (also net neutrality, Internet neutrality) is a principle proposed for residential broadband networks and potentially for all networks. A neutral broadband network is one that is free of restrictions on content, sites, or platforms, on the kinds of equipment that may be attached, and on the modes of communication allowed, as well as one where communication is not unreasonably degraded by other communication streams. The principle states that if a given user pays for a certain level of internet access, and another user pays for a given level of access, that the two users should be able to connect to each other at that given rate of access.

nadeemshafi9 Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 In 2003 Tim Wu, a professor at Columbia Law School, published and popularized a proposal for a net neutrality rule, in his paper Network Neutrality, Broadband Discrimination. Do you recon university professors steal their pupils papers and create a master paper ? (i wouldn't call it stealing) using the papers of people who need the qualification quickly and dont care about the work they did except for making it awesome ??? I think its the popularized bit you gotta get but that's only if you know what your saying is actually gonna take off.
