Watch: Burger King explains Net Neutrality with Whopper sandwiches
by Carla Sinclair from on (#3E8S7)
Although Net Neutrality - or its repeal if certain somebodies get their way - is an issue that affects everyone, not everyone is clued in to what it actually means. Enter Burger King's faux "social experiment" that explains Net Neutrality with a currency everyone understands: the Whopper sandwich. Want a Whopper for the regular price of $4.99? Fine but you'll have to get a "slow-access Whopper pass" and wait in the slow lane for up to 20 minutes. But no worries, if you're in a hurry you can still have it in a few minutes - it'll just cost you $26. This is the best explainer video I've seen in a long time.
