\f0\fs24 \cf0 We cannot allow ISPs to control access to the internet because it's a complete conflict of interest. ISPs would be strongly incentivized to exploit their control of internet speeds in order to boost profits from large corporations with deep pockets who would be able to afford preferential treatment. This would support monopolization of industries that rely on internet speeds. We are a country that believes in free competition as it has build an environment where everyone has a chance at the American dream. The internet has become too critical for our everyday lives to allow for-profit companies to control access to it. \

Net Neutrality is vital for small businesses, startups, and entrepreneurs because they rely on open access to the internet to launch their businesses, advertise their products, and access customers.

You MUST protect Net Neutrality for the sake of America's future.  }
