Participatory Democracy

Very strongly agree

No, this would allow them to remove competition, create artificial scarcity, and increase prices

This answer aligns with the principles of Participatory Democracy, as it highlights the potential negative consequences of allowing ISPs to prioritize certain websites over others. By preventing ISPs from creating artificial scarcity and removing competition, the internet remains a more open and democratic space, where smaller websites and voices have a chance to be heard and compete with larger ones.

Very strongly agree

No, treat all traffic equally and continue the openness of the internet

Treating all traffic equally aligns with the principles of Participatory Democracy, as it ensures equal access to information and opportunities for all citizens. This approach maintains the openness of the internet and allows for a diverse range of voices and information to be available online, fostering a more democratic digital landscape.

Strongly agree

No

Participatory Democracy would generally support equal access to information and opportunities for all citizens. By not allowing ISPs to speed up access to popular websites at the expense of less popular ones, the internet remains a more open and democratic space, where smaller websites and voices have a chance to be heard and compete with larger ones.

Slightly disagree

Yes, but only give priority by type (video over images) and not source (big website over little website)

While prioritizing by type rather than source might seem like a more neutral approach, it could still lead to some websites being disadvantaged and create an unequal playing field. Participatory Democracy would likely prefer a more equal treatment of all internet traffic to ensure a more democratic and diverse online environment.

Disagree

Yes, only if it’s strictly based on a pay-per-quality model

A pay-per-quality model could still lead to an unequal playing field, as wealthier websites could afford to pay for better quality, while smaller websites might struggle to compete. This goes against the principles of Participatory Democracy, which emphasizes equal access and opportunities for all citizens, regardless of their financial resources.

Disagree

Yes, this would make the internet faster and more reliable for users

While faster and more reliable internet is a positive outcome, Participatory Democracy would be concerned about the potential negative consequences of allowing ISPs to prioritize certain websites over others. This could lead to an unequal playing field and limit the diversity of voices and information available online.
