Vote For GA resolution Repeal "Open Internet Order"
Resolution Analysis
Open Internet Order aimed to implement a form of "net neutrality" by ensuring that all content on the Internet is treated equally and that service providers could not arbitrarily block or throttle traffic based on what the data packets contained. However, the resolution's definition of "reasonable network management" and poorly written requirements make the entire resolution ineffective, as they open a massive loophole which allows for traffic prioritization schemes anyway. The only real effect the resolution had was creating a new international agency that allows the World Assembly to fine service providers through an overreaching scheme of vague regulations.
For these reasons, the Ministry of World Assembly Affairs recommends a vote for this repeal.
