Rob Atkinson of industry-funded front group ITIF told the FCC that while Net Neutrality advocates "bemoan the state of competition in the American broadband marketplace (often with little foundation) there is always at least one alternative to the local telephone or cable provider: non-participation." Net Neutrality promotes growth, competition, and prevents internet providers from filtering ideas and information that they may not agree with. Without Net Neutrality, the internet is open it censorship and our freedom of speech will be greatly diminished. Look at China. With Google pulling out, just look at the effect on Chinese businesses that exist because of the internet.
