Net neutrality is the idea that ISPs like Verizon, AT&T, Comcast, and Charter Spectrum must allow customers equal access to content and applications, regardless of the source or nature of the content. ISPs may not discriminate against any content, or types of files, by refusing to transmit these files, charging more for these files and
content, or providing special high speed access for some users, like Netflix or Google. It also means that everyone will be charged the same flat fee regardless of how much bandwidth they consume. This means that people who stream or download very large video files pay no more for service than people who just send emails.
