    Sorry, what is “it” in that sentence? In mine, “it” is “Internet access”.

      “It” is net neutrality. You know, the thing this post is about. Net neutrality does not police speech.

        Sure. My point was that Internet monopolists have the technical ability to decide “I don’t like the stuff they say on that Lemmy site, Imma block it.” Which is another good reason to not have Internet services be monopolized, or to not let monopolists exercise that sort of technical ability discretionally.

          Net neutrality is the opposite of that. I’m very confused here.

            Replace “this” with “which” and I’m pretty sure that also gets the point across that the other commenter is trying to make.
