Net Neutrality Bill To Be Introduced

A bill to protect net neutrality in Rhode Island is going to be introduced.  Providence state Representative Aaron Regunberg says his legislation would require that all Internet access purchased or funded by the state be provided consistent with net neutrality principles.  He calls it a consumer protection bill ensuring open and fair access to the Internet.  The Federal Communications Commission recently overturned net neutrality regulations which means providers can charge more for certain content, block content and limit customers to slower Internet speed.
