The Norwegian Internet industry is in agreement on how it will relate to
the issue of network neutrality. A number of parties have now endorsed
network neutrality guidelines drawn up by a working group headed by the
Norwegian Post and Telecommunications Authority (NPT). 

[...]

The network neutrality guidelines are based on three principles:

*  Internet users are entitled to an Internet connection with a
   predefined capacity and quality.

*  Internet users are entitled to an Internet connection that enables
   them to 
      - send and receive content of their choice
      - use services and run applications of their choice
      - connect hardware and use software of their choice that do not
        harm the network.

*  Internet users are entitled to an Internet connection that is free of
   discrimination with regard to type of application, service or content
   or based on sender or receiver address.
