Free speech, equal access, innovation and opportunity everything that the Internet stands for is in danger. By giving a platform to both the old and the new, the well-funded and the upcoming, the established and the struggler, the internet gave wings to every business' dream and power in the hands of the individual to choose. All this is in danger.

Some telecom companies are getting into preferential partnerships with websites and apps in violation of net-neutrality. What this means is that either your favourite app or website might not be available for access by a particular telecom provider or that data usage would be charged at a higher rate or your internet speed would be throttled when you visit them. On the other hand, the so-called "partners" to this ecosystem will reap undue benefits because these websites or apps could possibly be accessed for free or at higher speeds than others.

This might make you use apps and sites that you did not like or switch telecom providers just to get access to what you want.
