4. B

Answer 1

Correct Answer - Option 2 : D

The correct answer is Differential pricing of Internet services.

• Net neutrality is the principle that must be followed by all internet service providers (ISPs).
• It instructs all ISPs to provide all online content equally without favoring or blocking specific companies or products, websites, or types of content.
• In simple terms, it means that all traffic on the internet is equal and is accessible equally by the users.

• It ensures:
  • Equal access to all sites
  • Cost to access data on a site should be the same (no price differential )
  • Zero-rating should not be offered, which means no free access would be provided for sites that are paid.
