Net Neutrality and Broadband Justice: Internet as Telecommunications Service

This bill aims to classify broadband internet access as a telecommunications service. This means internet providers would be subject to similar regulations as traditional phone companies, potentially impacting how we use the internet by ensuring all online content is treated equally.
Key points
Broadband internet will be treated like a phone service, which could prevent providers from blocking or slowing down websites.
This change aims to ensure all users have equal access to online content and applications, regardless of their internet provider.
