Lowell McAdam Quotes

Net Neutrality is what makes the Internet so great - and so vital for innovation and creativity.

Net neutrality is such an important principle for the Web and for the Internet. It's how the Internet's operated for all this time.

Net neutrality has been in place since the very beginning of the Internet.

We support an open Internet and having rules - the right kind of rules that are legally enforceable and allow for investment and innovation.

Internet users should be able to choose where to go online and which applications to use. Comcast, say, shouldn't be allowed to block Skype just because it could siphon the communications giant's telephone business.

The most important thing to remember here is that the Internet is not broken, and all of the innovation that we've seen since inception has been based on it being free and open.

Political divisions may be fierce, but there is at least one issue that most Americans agree on: net neutrality.

We need to make Net Neutrality the law. We need to elect a Congress that will make it a priority to keep this important principal intact - and insure equal and open access to the Internet for all.

The question is not whether we want to keep this open, neutral Internet - we do, or should - but whether government rulemaking can give us the result we want.

The nature of the Internet and the importance of net neutrality is that innovation can come from everyone.

The most important thing is, we really want to make sure the American people are able to get to any Web site they'd like to get to.

I want to preserve the free and open Internet - the experience that most users and entrepreneurs have come to expect and enjoy today and that has unleashed impressive innovation, job creation, and investment.

If net neutrality goes away, it will fundamentally change everything about the Internet.

Net neutrality was essential for our economy; it was essential to preserve freedom and openness, both for economic reasons and free speech reasons, and the government had a role in ensuring that Internet freedom was protected.

Much of the civil rights work of this century will entail championing digital rights.

Without net neutrality protections, the Internet would no longer be a free and open ecosystem for innovation.

You do not need the government to protect open internet; the marketplace was doing it and will continue to do it. All you are doing is adding a burden that does not need to be there.

The Open Internet principles were not legal rules adopted by the FCC; they were effectively a press statement posted on the FCC website.

Net neutrality is the right thing for our democracy, economy, and global competitiveness. And Americans support an open Internet.

Because of network neutrality rules, activists can turn to the Internet to bypass the discrimination of mainstream cable, broadcast, and print outlets as we organize for change.

I support a free and open Internet.

We need a generation of net neutrality voters. People now really understand what's at stake, and we need to translate millions of comments to the FCC into millions of votes in the midterm.

We all have an interest in an open Internet.

I think net neutrality needs to be explored in a broader sense.

The Internet is working because it's free and open, and there's no discrimination. Without these rules, ISPs could treat content differently based on commercial interests or even ideology.
