The EU Strikes a Blow For Net Neutrality. And Against it.

From a dig­i­tal social jus­tice stand­point, net neu­tral­i­ty is a crit­i­cal right so the EU’s announced reform pack­age was, in many ways, some very good news. Unfor­tu­nate­ly, the good news on the EU’s tele­com over­haul isn’t the only news.
