Net Neutrality: A Managerial Perspective
By: Shane Greenstein and Christine Snively
Abstract
The net neutrality debate had implications for Internet service providers, content providers, and end users. This note aims to inform the reader of the various sides of the debate where open issues remain, as well as what aspects an entrepreneur, investor, or content provider—either an existing player or a new entrant—should know. From a management perspective, net neutrality rules could have major consequences on the business models of content providers, ISPs, and other businesses that depend on the transfer of data across the Internet.
