This is a principle on which most people agree, but the policies around it can be much more contentious.
    So what is going on with net neutrality now? And why does it matter? I sat down with Annie Chestnut Tutor, Policy Analyst in the Tech Policy Center here at the Heritage Foundation, to find out.
