Editing Net neutrality (section)

=== China ===
Net neutrality in China is not enforced, and ISPs in China play important roles in regulating the content that is available domestically on the Internet. There are several ISPs filtering and blocking content at the national level, preventing domestic Internet users from accessing certain sites or services or foreign Internet users from gaining access to domestic web content. This filtering technology is referred to as the [[Great Firewall]], or GFW.<ref name=":1">{{Cite journal|last=Hu|first=Henry L.|date=2011|title=The Political Economy of Governing ISPs in China: Perspectives of Net Neutrality and Vertical Integration|journal=The China Quarterly|volume=207|issue=207|pages=523–540|doi=10.1017/S0305741011000634|jstor=41305255|s2cid=143429384|issn=0305-7410}}</ref>
