A biased look at Net Neutrality- Noah Huerta

Hi, just reminding you guys first of all that Net Neutrality is not dead yet but frankly it seems the congressional review will be made soon and seems out of our hands.

This article looks at the republican party's opposition to keep Net Neutrality seeing as how Ajit Pai is a republican and keeps trying to convince people that Net Neutrality is "left and right" issue. This is not the case seeing as how, Title II (Net Neutrality) was placed as a partisan issue and could not be defined as Republican or Democratic because it's the
internet. 

This article looks at specific reasons why republicans in office would repeal Net Neutrality, with reasons pertaining to corporate financial disadvantages. Basically claiming that republican officials would rather take money from corporations than take the people's best interests at the internet. Which isn't entirely wrong, however claiming it is just "Republicans" seems unnecessarily biased.

Honestly Net Neutrality can not be a party issue, and needs to be a partisan decision. There are greedy decisions being made from people in office, and we probably need to call our senators if we still have the chance.
