It has become increasingly important for we as a nation to define our
parameters when it comes to content.

1. Should we allow content online that we wouldn't even think about showing
in our sitting rooms and public places?

2. Should the government be the morality cop when we as parents fail to do
our duty?

3. Where does third party liability start and stop? There are precedents
here by the way where Google has actually taken down graphic Al-Shabaab
videos and the US Government ordering Google to take down the video -
Innocence of Muslims.

I suspect there's no easy answer to these pressing issues.

Net Neutrality  is becoming an issue that needs our attention - and
quickly.
