“…It is obvious that network owners want to increase their profits and therefore support anti‐NN policies which allow them to set differential prices and transmission speed policies according to the type and source of the service or application. However, this type of discrimination also enables more investments by these operators in new and expensive network technologies that benefit users as well (e.g., Choi et al, 2015; Kotrous, 2015; Kramer et al, 2013; Litan & Singer, 2007). However, the “investment argument” (anti‐NN policy) is countered by the “innovation claim” that innovators should be able to offer their initiatives to users free of charge and compete on fair terms with established online businesses (e.g., Cheng et al, 2010).…”

This study investigates the policy process through which net neutrality (NN) policy in Israel has been shaped. The analysis employs a framework based on the InternetGovernance concept and the multi-stakeholder approach.Based on the analysis of formal documents, debates in parliamentary committees and the Parliament plenum, and position papers of various actors, the findings show that NN policy in Israel is one more layer of the neo-liberal policy in the telecommunication sector. It is demonstrated how experts and bureaucrats, influenced by industry interests, have been dominant during the policy process while civil society groups representing the public interests have been only marginal actors. The paper concludes with a call for a more proactive attitude of all stakeholder groups in order to enable a more balanced governance of central internet issues, such as NN.
