Marvin Ammori Quotes

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

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

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.

I'm for Internet openness. We're all for Internet openness. If you asked the American people, I think they support it. Internet companies, broadband companies are all in favor of it.

Internet service providers should not be permitted to block, throttle and unfairly favor certain content, applications, services or devices.

Net neutrality is one where we the people are definitely on the ropes.

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.

It's an incredibly important thing to make sure we preserve net neutrality.

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

I support a free and open Internet.

Net-neutrality proponents howled when Comcast started throttling traffic from BitTorrent, a bandwidth-hogging program people use to swap video files. The Federal Communications Commission sided with the open-Internet folks, ruling that Comcast could not selectively choke off traffic.

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

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

Any outcome, any deal that doesn't preserve the freedom and openness of the Internet for consumers and entrepreneurs will be unacceptable.

As president of Common Cause, I joined a coalition of groups ranging from the Christian Coalition to Consumers Union, and we went to Congress with over a million signatures asking that Net Neutrality be made law.

Network neutrality protects the ability of users to access the lawful content, applications, and services of their choice. In other words, it lets users determine who wins and loses in the marketplace, and that's the way it should be.

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

I think we should not control the Internet.

The Internet treats censorship as a malfunction and routes around it.

The hope of Internet anarchists was that repressive governments would have only two options: accept the Internet with its limitless possibilities of spreading information, or restrict Internet access to the ruling elite and turn your back on the 21st century, as North Korea has done.
