Abstract
The Network Neutrality (as commonly known) or Net Neutrality (as in Europe) (NN) gained attention, when Federal Communication Committee enacted the Open Internet Order. This paper reviews the development of NN debate process, and the opinions from different sides, including network providers, service providers, other relevant companies, governments and researchers. This paper also discusses the emphasis of NN’s impact on future innovation. Human Bond Communication (HBC) is a future conception that involves all the five human senses for modelling the physical subject into information domain, so as to allow more expressive and holistic sensory information exchange for more human sentiment centric communications. Being a communication concept, HBC may involve a paradigm of conventional communication involving prioritization, differentiation and, etc. NN outcomes therefore can contribute significantly in modeling HBC platform. This paper extends NN discussion to a future communication concept of HBC.
