(If you feel comfortable and represented by this text, give all you can and want to broadcast: watch it, link it, translate it, share it, vote ... All those things you can do with total peace and freedom thanks precisely to the fact that we still have a neutral network. Let's possible to continue holding it)
Citizens and businesses using the Internet attached to this text DECLARE:
1 .- Neutral Internet is a network of design, from its inception to its current implementation, in which information flows freely, without discrimination made on the basis of origin, destination, protocol, or content. 2 .-
companies, entrepreneurs and Internet users have been able to create services and products in the Neutral Red without authorization or prior agreements, resulting in a virtually non-existent barrier to entry has allowed the explosion of creativity, innovation and services that defines the current network status.
3 .- all users, entrepreneurs and Internet companies have been able to define and offer their services on an equal footing taking the concept of competition to an extent previously unknown. 4 .-
Internet is the vehicle of free speech, free information and most important social development which have citizens and businesses. His nature must not be jeopardized in any way.
5 .- That to enable the Neutral Network operators must carry packets of data in a neutral manner without being a "customs" of traffic and no advantage or disadvantage to some content over others. 6 .-
traffic management situations saturation point and exceptional networking should be undertaken in a transparent manner according to standard criteria of public interest and non-discriminatory and non-commercial.
7 .- exceptional traffic that restriction by operators can not become a sustainable alternative to network investment.
8 .- That the Neutral Red is threatened by operators interested in reaching commercial agreements which favors or degrade the content according to their relationship with the operator.
9 .- That some market participants want to "redefine" the Neutral Red to be handled in accordance with their interests, and that claim must be avoided, the definition of the fundamental rules of operation of the Internet should be based on the interest of those who use it, not those who provide them.
10 .- That the response to this threat to the network will not be inaction, doing nothing amounts to allowing private interests to conduct de facto practices affecting citizens' fundamental freedoms and the ability of companies to compete on equal terms.
11 .- That it is necessary and urgent urge the Government to protect a clear and unambiguous Neutral Network, in order to protect the value of Internet towards developing a more productive, modern, efficient and free of interference and interferences. This requires that any motion to approve inextricably linking the definition of Neutral Red in the content of future legislation that promotes and does not condition its application to issues that have little to do with it.
Neutral Network is a clearly defined concept in academia, where it stirs debate: citizens and businesses have the right to traffic received or generated data is not manipulated, distorted, impeded, diverted or delayed priority depending on the type of content, protocol or application used, the origin or destination of the communication or any other circumstances unrelated to their own will. That traffic is treated as a private communication and only under court order may be monitored, traced, stored or analyzed in its content, such as private correspondence that it really is.
Europe and Spain in particular, are in the midst of an economic crisis so important to force radical change in its production model, and better use of the creativity of its citizens. Neutral Network is crucial to preserve an ecosystem that encourages competition and innovation for the creation of numerous products and services that are to invent and discover. The ability to network, so collaborative, and connected markets, affect all sectors and all companies in our country, making the Internet a key factor in our current and future economic and social development, largely determining the level of competitiveness. Hence our deep concern for the preservation of the Neutral Network. We therefore urge the English Government urgently to be proactive in the European context and to legislate in a clear and unambiguous in this regard. S2
