What is network neutrality?

From Research­Buzz:

“Net­work neu­tral­i­ty” (also called “net neu­tral­i­ty”) is the idea that an Inter­net access provider must pro­vide access to all parts of the Inter­net with­out prej­u­dice — with­out block­ing areas com­plete­ly, with­out slow­ing areas down, etc. Accord­ing to net neu­tral­i­ty, an access provider should treat all Inter­net traf­fic equal­ly no mat­ter what it is (e‑mail, Web page, video, game, etc.) or where it comes from.
