In his statement, Mark said “The countries are figuring out on their own what the regulations would be for Net Neutrality. What we are trying to do, since the Internet is expensive and you can’t provide the whole internet for free; basic programs, anything that is basically test, low bandwidth would be free. It is really imp that we have regulations that prevent companies from doing things that hurt people. For example if an operator is charging you extra or is making you pay more, regulations is going to prevent that. Good Net Neutrality provisions help people,”
