− | '''Network Neutrality''', also known as '''Net Neutrality''', is an Internet policy issue that considers the degree to which Internet Service Providers can selectively promote certain Internet content and applications to their customers, whether through [[zero-rating]], [[paid prioritization]], or other means. Some countries have passed Network Neutrality legislation, others have taken a “co-regulatory” approach, and others encourage self-regulation within the ISP industry. Many countries have yet to respond to the issue, and in some countries it is a policy question open for review.<ref>New Zealand Ministry for Business, Innovation, and Employment ''[http://www.med.govt.nz/sectors-industries/technology-communication/communications/legislation-relating-to-the-telecommunications-sector/review-of-the-telecommunications-act-2001 Review of the Telecommunications Act 2001].''
