Carriers/ISPs are fast becoming power-hungry when it comes to controlling the information you send across the Internet. Net Neutrality prevents Internet providers from blocking, speeding up or slowing down traffic which may compete with their commercially provided services. This way the consumer has more choice over the services he/she uses without carriers interfering based on their own commercial interests. If there were more competition among carriers, this would be a non-issue but we've seen much carrier-collusion in recent years, and this needs to end.
