"The open and neutral character of the Internet has been a driver of competitiveness, economic growth and innovation which has led to spectacular levels of development in online applications, content and services. In this context, the EU regulatory framework for telecommunications of 2009 safeguards the principles of Internet neutrality and openness and promotes the ability of consumers to access and distribute information, without discrimination regarding the content, applications and services of their choice. Unhappily, some abusive commercial practices in traffic management, the blocking of access to Skype being an example, may undermine this principle of net neutrality. It is fundamental, in this context, to defend the minimum necessary conditions for net neutrality, such as effective competition in electronic communications, transparency in traffic management and quality of services, as well as the possibility for consumers to switch easily to a new provider that can best meet their needs and preferences. I have voted in favour of this resolution, so that the Internet can continue to provide high-quality services in a framework that promotes and respects fundamental rights."@en1
