European Parliament Votes for Net Neutrality

"Among the proponents was also Stanford professor Barbara van Schewick, who along with several technology companies, helped compose a letter to the President of the European Parliament, Martin Schulz, asking MEPs to vote in favor of the amendments. “I was contacted by a number of start-ups and investors because they were deeply concerned about the impact of the European Parliament’s network neutrality proposals on start-up innovation in Europe,” she was quoted in a statement made to the BBC."
