Rejected petition Ensure Net Neutrality remains in the UK
Considering current discussions in the United States regarding the abolishment of 'Net Neutrality' rules, we want reassurance and certainty that Net Neutrality in the UK remains in place both now and in the future.
More details
If there is no Net Neutrality, ISPs like BT and Virgin will be able to block apps, slow websites, and charge fees to control what you see and do online- for example, you may have to pay extra to access streaming services such as Netflix.
