Mal sanctioned the Law 12.965/14 ( Civil Marco Internet ) , telecommunications companies have declared their " interpretation " of the text , in the sense that , " since that offer the same offer ( differentiated access ) for everyone in the market , not there are breaking the law " - as reported today ( 04.24.2014 ) by Folha de Sao Paulo .
The interest in offering " different patterns " content access network , by telecommunications companies , is nothing new . Fought for it all the time and , in practice, that was the big reason for the numerous delays Poll of the Draft Law
The point now moves to the " interpretive " disputes - as if the fact of "preserving and ensuring network neutrality " is a principle of law that allow interpretations in practice break neutrality . No, it does not.
The bottom line is simple on neutrality : telecom operators and large Internet companies may or may not choose what we can access on the network , facilitating or hindering access to content previously defined in your negotiations ?
That is what is at stake . Breaking neutrality implies , ultimately ruin all the other core principles of the Civil Marco , notably the freedom of expression may become unavailable or be severely restricted in a scenario where the " Internet vehicle " have "owners " .
Breaking net neutrality is a structural issue that the regulation was intended to apply to the use of the Internet in Brazil model - even the telcos insist on ignoring this and more , insist on wanting to ' relieve themselves ' to respect this principle .
Beside the issue of protection of personal data , which remains an inconceivable gap of an effective regulatory framework for any law that deals with network usage and circulation of data, preserving the real net neutrality arises as a central point of attention , hereafter .
We will be attentive to the " rules " which later , under pressure from telcos , was inserted into the text , so that in the name of " operational issues " , she did not make possible the effective dismantling of legal protection .
