"I voted for this resolution because the principle of net neutrality is fundamental to preserving the Internet’s innovative nature and free competition and to respecting human rights. In Europe, we need to have net neutrality which allows users not to have conditions restricting their access to applications or services. By the same token, it must allow anyone who develops an application on the Internet not to be subject to decisions made by Internet Service Providers (ISPs). I think that providers of electronic communication networks and Internet access services should not hamper or delay traffic running on their networks, except for certain cases where this action is necessary, for example, to enforce a legal obligation in this respect. I advocated that Member States should launch effective communication programmes to highlight to the general public the issue of net neutrality, as they need to be informed about their rights to be able to report any abuses. At the same time, I think that the proposals contained in the Commission communication need to be supplemented by programmes developed to monitor ISPs and by sanctions to be implemented if irregularities are detected."@en1
