Abstract

With the boom in bit-intensive and live streaming content in the broadband Internet ecosystem, accompanied with growing market power of network operators, “network neutrality” has become the focus of discussion among various stakeholders. In addition, the recent popularity of zero-rating options in mobile broadband businesses has made this problem even more complicated to be dealt with. This paper summarizes the essence of the “network neutrality” problem and an approach of the Japanese government, and discuss how zero-rating will affect its approach to this problem and what is required in the future policy making.
