This video is for the uninitiated and those with unanswered questions about the burning question — What is Net Neutrality? AIB (All India B******) after an earlier controversial run, has now released an informative video about net neutrality which is the talk of the hour. Social media sites are abuzz with hastags and trends about this movement which demands open Internet. Net neutrality simply means when a service provider sell data they don't get to choose how the data is used. The idea is that the Internet Service Provider should not control how exactly consumers use the data. It is up to user on how they want to utelise the services.
Watch the video:
AIB asks important questions like — What is net neutrality and why should I care? Why don't more people know about this and why aren't more people angry about it? What are Over the top (OTT) services and why don't telecom companies like them? Why are telecom companies fighting net neutrality? Don't telecom companies want to protect the law?
Even the King of Bollywood tweeted the pro-net neutrality video:
