The Cocoon Blog Net Neutrality: Don't Break the Net. Net neutrality prevents corporate ISP providers from telling you what types of content you are authorized to view online and provides a level playing field for everyone. There are no Internet fast lanes or slow lanes (unless you are on dial-up). The entire purpose of net neutrality is that cable and phone companies should treat all websites on the Internet equally. For example, Comcast would probably like to promote NBC’s content over ABC’s to its Internet subscribers. That’s because Comcast and NBC are affiliated. But net neutrality prevents Comcast from being able to discriminate, and it must display both NBC’s and ABC’s content evenly as a result. That means no slower load time for ABC, and definitely no blocking of ABC altogether.In short, net neutrality creates an even playing field among content providers — both large and small — to the web.
