The First Amendment to the Constitution gives all citizens the freedom of speech. However, not a proposed plan, net neutrality, can hinder the internet as an outlet to free speech. This proposal, if enacted, will force companies to filter their own sites and data. This will allow service providers to charge organizations for "better service". In turn, this makes smaller organizations who cannot afford these fees lose a large audience. This will make the internet lose it current status as a free territory, and become a system ran by large-scale corporations.
