What is Net Neutrality?
Network neutrality requires all Internet service providers (ISPs) to provide the same level of data access and speed to all traffic, and that traffic to selected services or websites cannot be blocked or degraded. ISPs are also not to create special arrangements with services or websites, in which companies providing them are given improved network access or speed.

Our customers will continue to be able to visit any lawful sites that they choose; Sparklight does not block, throttle, or discriminate against lawful content; and Sparklight is not creating internet fast lanes for certain companies and has no plans to enter into paid prioritization agreements. We are committed to continuing to manage our business and network with the goal of providing the best possible consumer experience.
