Dear TRAI,

I am writing to express my concern against the actions that telecom
carriers are taking to restrict fair access to the internet (Net
Neutrality). I believe the internet is a vital resource – it helps me
communicate, work, and thrive as a citizen in every aspect of life. If
telecom operators can discriminate internet traffic on the basis of
which services pay the most, we are allowing them to gain control over
a vital and necessary technological resource. By doing so we allow
them to define what information we can view; what entertainment we can
access; and how companies can innovate. And this is not something
anyone would want to see.

This is completely unfair and harms India’s long term role in the
global market. I strongly believe the growth of telecoms and the
well-being of the internet can go hand-in-hand. I’m asking for a
framework to ensure long term and fair access for all services
regardless of size. I want my generation and those that come after me
to have unfettered access to the Internet, with no telcos or ISPs
having the ability to charge for specific services I use on top of it.
Please understand that the internet is an important resource and vital
to me and to every other Indian citizen. I would like to see it kept
free and protected under Net Neutrality to ensure fair and equal
access for all and forever.
