- ‘The essence of net neutrality and the issues
underpinning the debate concern first and foremost how best to preserve the
openness of this platform and to ensure that it can continue to provide
high-quality services to all and to allow innovation to flourish, while
contributing to enjoyment of and respect for fundamental rights, such as
freedom of expression and freedom to conduct business.’

services, such as television broadcasting via the internet.’
