Executive SummaryThis policy document presents the broadband application provider's perspective on the FCC's proposed open Internet rules. Broadband application providers support open Internet rules, according to which the Internet should be transparent, access to it should not be blocked and it should be free from unreasonable discrimination. These rules will allow broadband application providers to deliver their content to all users without unnecessary blocking by ISPs. This policy document first describes the FCC's vision of the open Internet. Second, it describes the problems faced by broadband application providers due to irregularities in open internet rules. Third, it provides an overview of current policies and the views of other groups. Finally, it concludes with the requirements on the rules of the open internet.I. IntroductionWith the rapid development of the Internet and its presence in all the activities we carry out today, the role of the ISP has changed from a simple service provider to a monitor, who can access its infrastructure [1]. This has given rise to concerns about how ISPs will choose a strategy for charging for accessing content on the Internet. As a result, the term open Internet has evolved.a. What is Open Internet? The Internet is the system of interconnected computers and devices that use the TCP/IP protocol suite to connect devices around the world. To extend this concept, the "open Internet" is the Internet in which broadband Internet service providers (ISPs) are supposed to treat all data flowing through the Internet equally. They are not allowed to discriminate between different applications and application provider traffic. Tim Wu,...... half of the document......et is with other neutral networks such as the electricity grid [2]. Mains neutral doesn't care if you've connected a computer, a refrigerator or a light bulb. This nature of the electricity grid has made it extremely useful and innovative today. Tim Wu, the inventor of the Web, didn't ask anyone's permission when he invented the Web [3]. And now billions of people use it freely. The suggested policy prescriptions will provide equal opportunities for all broadband application providers to reach consumers. Application providers may be charged based on infrastructure resources (bandwidth) consumed, and the ISP should keep all broadband application providers in the same priority bracket. This will prove beneficial to broadband ISPs and consumers and will be fruitful in preserving the openness and freedom of the Internet.
