Our Latest: Google, Facebook, Twitter Clamor for an “Open Net” While Gearing Up Their Censorship Divisions

mintpressnewsIn our latest analysis for MintPress News, our first of 2018, we take a look at the issue of “net neutrality.” Following the repeal of Title II net neutrality regulations in the United States by the FCC, we argue that due to the many inherent inequalities online and the business practices of internet service providers, net neutrality never truly existed.

We also expose the hypocrisy of the supposed “champions” of an “open internet,” such as Google, Facebook, and Twitter, who in reality engage in censorship, throttling, and prioritization of paid content while purporting to unwaveringly support “net neutrality.”
