Months after the Federal Communications Commission was flooded with hundreds of thousands of comments on the commission’s new net neutrality rules, the Sunlight Foundation has finally managed to analyze them to find that they overwhelmingly call for more regulations against internet service providers (ISPs) to protect net neutrality.

The foundation even developed an interactive tool to navigate the comment themes by common words used. Two in three comments rejected the idea of separating sites into paid tiers based on speeds. More than half of the comments referred to the public's right to access the internet.

From Reddit to comedian John Oliver, organizations and individuals alike had called on others to press upon the FCC the importance of preserving net neutrality, the idea that everyone should have an equal platform for expression on the web. Net neutrality has been challenged by ISPs that wish to charge different fees for different speeds of content delivery. The FCC has tried to compromise between net neutrality and ISPs by allowing different rates under the condition of transparency and rule that no site should ever be discriminated against or penalized with slow speeds. Critics pointed out that requiring fees for fast speeds is a way of discriminating against sites who cannot afford them.
