Without Net Neutrality what can happen is that we could have no longer free will to choose what we see on the Internet as our Internet provider can have the power to block the access to a determinate search engine or webpage.

The consequence of an inexistence of Net Neutrality is the possibility of our Internet Provider to sign contracts with search engines for example and block our access to the other because is more lucrative for them, keeping like that the choice of what can be seen on internet not to the user but to the Internet Provider.
