Abstract
The Network Neutrality principle states that, In order to preserve the openness of the Internet, Internet Service Providers (ISP) should be prohibited from blocking or differentiating between content from different application providers, and the end users should have equal access to all legal content on the Internet. The Network Neutrality issue is critical as it can have a considerable impact on the future Internet design principles and associated laws and policies. In this paper, we discuss some of the challenges in monitoring Network Neutrality conformance, focusing on the content provider discrimination. In addition we discuss the emerging network technologies such as Giga-LTE, LTE in Unlicensed spectrum (LTE-U) or Licensed Assisted Access (LAA), LTE Broadcast, LTE Wi-Fi Aggregation (LWA), MulteFire, etc., and discuss how they may affect Network Neutrality.
