Net Neutrality Around the Globe: A Survey

Net neutrality has been the topic of numerous debates in many countries. People are fighting for what they believe to be a basic right to use the Internet, in which bandwidth throttling and preferable treatments should not be exercised. There are many new developments in the fight for fair Internet access services. In this paper, we conduct a survey on a global scale of laws and regulations regarding net neutrality. We study the prominent countries in four parts of the world: North America, Central and South America, Asia, and Europe to show what laws and regulations are put into action for each country. We also compare how each country implements the net neutrality principles.
