Question

Explain the concept of net neutrality and at least one argument in favor of it and one argument against it. Is it morally permissible to censor or block public access to websites dedicated to the propagation of hate speech? Provide an argument to defend your answer. Computer programs are considered intellectual property and are now subject to both copyright and patent law. In what ways is this controversial? What does it mean to say that modern society is becoming a sort of panopticon? Assuming this is at least somewhat true, is it morally problematic? Explain your answer. The possibility of using strong encryption on one's data seems to present a conflict between our rights of privacy and property on the one hand and issues of national security and police investigations on the other hand. Should such encryption be publicly available? Is "hactivism" a morally justifiable form of civil disobedience? Defend your answer. Should computer science professionalize, so that one would "practice" computer science the way one "practices" law or medicine, with specific requirements, privileges, and obligations?

Explanation / Answer

Net Neutrality means providing the content on the internet without any discrimination and without blocking any content. The Internet service providers can get a lot of income if there is no net neutrality. Because all the top level companies can pay hefty amounts to ISPs and their content will be displayed prioritized. Startups or companies which do not pay amounts to the ISPs' are even blocked or will open slowly. This makes the end users(us) to choose from the choice provided by ISPs' rather than from where we like. If this happens, no startup company could compete with Multinational companies which make the market monopoly for the MNCs'. The only positivity in opposing net neutrality will be a lot of money at stake. so, ISPs' are not willing to loose it.
