It happens about once a day– I’m asked to explain net neutrality and why it’s gone. I always try to keep things simple, not stupid. I describe it as allowing internet service companies charge premium prices for services we’ve all become accustomed to having at reasonable ratesYou want to keep a fast internet connection? Then you’ll pay a premium price for it. Can’t afford it, then you’ll be relinquished to a below premium service, likely service than what you experience now. I’m not going to get into the egghead economics of the end of net neutrality (some experts believe it will drive greater competition between companies fostering even lower costs). But I do think the Burger King ad that demonstrates net neutrality through the cost of burgers is genius… enjoy.
