Net Neutrality :- A serious issue

Net neutrality- People Vs Service providers

Technology is a wonderful thing but we are seldom comfortable with the tech lingo that is used. NET NEUTRALITY! The air smells of this term, the social media sites are flooded with the posts related to this, the news channels are also broadcasting about this. But how many of us really know what this actually means? In fact, even if we know, we do not completely understand the implications of this. Or do we?

What is NET NEUTRALITY?

Heard about “Open Internet”? Well, yes, Net neutrality is just an alias for open internet. Open Internet stands for the same speeds for data exchange for everyone on the internet. Every system is treated equally and given the same preference as everyone else on the internet. It is like standing in a queue waiting for your turn. Now, let’s move on to US. Comcast and Verizon are the leading ISPs (Internet Service Provider) of the US. They have introduced a bill in the US parliament for breaking the internet into two parts- fast lane and slow lane, which means those websites that are willing to pay extra for high speed internet will transmit data on high speed servers while all the others will be left in the cold on the slow servers.

Are you a March born

Do you feel the happy chills when you realize that the month of March is approaching? If yes, then definitely you are the “Fish”. Astrology has placed the sign of the fish in this month. Although the month is named behind the planet, “Mars”, its association with the sun sign is based on the position of Neptune. Boring, eh? Astrology can be boring but when you know the secret of getting the insights into the vagaries of human nature based on their birthdays, does it sound interesting? Probably yes!
