Abstract

Internet filtration is the control or suppression of what can be accessed, published, or viewed on the Internet. Filtering can be based on relatively static blacklist or be determined more dynamically based on real-time examination of the information being exchanged. Internet neutrality is the principle that Internet service providers and governments should treat all data on the Internet same, without discriminating or charging differentially by user, content, site, platform, application, type of attached equipment or mode of communication. This paper deals with effect of Internet neutrality on Internet filtration. We will try to find out why Internet neutrality is considered as programmed censorship.

Keywords
