Connections: Talking about 'net neutrality'

Vox warns that "net neutrality is dying with a whimper." So remind us again: what exactly is net neutrality? How does it relate to internet freedom, download speeds, competition, and the public good? And why is Congress divided on such partisan lines over this issue?

Our guests explain:

Josephine Wolff, assistant professor in the Department of Public Policy, and member of the extended faculty in the Department of Computing Security at RIT

Jeremy Sarachan, chair of the Media and Communication Department at St. John Fisher College
