[size=150][color=#265780]Resolution Analysis[/color][/size]
The Internet Neutrality Act fails to correctly implement the concept of net neutrality. While the resolution addresses the explicit throttling down of connection speed to specific content, it does not address the prioritization of content, leaving open the possibility of large corporations paying a bribe for more favorable traffic prioritization. Additionally, while the resolution prohibits WA Nations and ISPs residing in them to not block lawful content, it still leaves the definition of lawful content up to individual states, making that part of the resolution meaningless.

[b]For these reasons, the Ministry of World Assembly Affairs recommends a vote [u]against[/u] this resolution.[/b]
