Should Net Neutrality be repealed? (Companies perspectives)
Net neutrality is the way of thinking that Internet service providers must treat all data on the Internet the same, and not discriminate or charge differently by user, content, website, flat supporting surface, application, type of attached equipment, or method of communication.

"This is the beginning of a long legal battle. Netflix stands with innovators, large & small, to oppose this misguided FCC order." Netflix disagrees with the decision made by the FCC.(Adams) Netflix was surprised with the way the FCC vote can out and was disappointed with it.

Vimeo looks forward to challenging this misguided decision in court. Not everyone is behind the net neutrality rules. Internet service providers like AT&T, Verizon and Comcast have a lot to gain from loosened regulations. Vimeo supports the open internet and they want the FCC to understand the outcome of what can happen if they take it away. By taking away the open internet you are not only hurting the consumers but also the businesses. ISPs can lose money and if that happens the business could go out of business because the consumers will move on to a different ISP that won’t block stuff of the internet.
