D ear TRAI, I am writing to express my concern against the
actions telecom carriers are taking to restrict fair access to
the internet (i.e. Net Neutrality). If telecom operators are
allowed to discriminate the flow of internet traffic solely on
the basis of which services pay the most, we are allowing
telecoms control over a vital technological resource. We
allow them to define what information & entertainment we
can access. This is completely unfair. I understand the
concern that regulation may deter telecoms from expanding
access & speeds, but I strongly believe the growth of
telecoms & the well-being of the internet can go hand-in-
hand. I'm not asking for regulation so strong as to stifle
progress, but only a framework to ensure long term & fair
access for all services regardless of size. Please
understand that the internet is an important resource & vital
to me. I would like to see it protected under Net Neutrality
to ensure fair & equal access for all.
