I’ve been a little apprehensive about sharing my PhD work with you. In many ways, the stuff I’ve finished is still in the early stages. But today I want to talk about the theories I’m employing to answer my questions about what history is exactly. I feel I may be onto a definition, and to explain, I’m going to show why the danger of losing something like net neutrality, is similar to how water becomes ice. A little unclear? It will make sense in a minute.
This’ll be a bit of a strange video. A typical Step Back episode covers stories from the past or ideas from history. The subject today is less events and occurrences, but theory. And to finish off, I’m going to use theory to show why net neutrality is something we need to fight for.
