Google has recently declared that they are committed to Network neutrality. They have announced that, their search results will never be biased towards the source, ownership or the destination of the content in the web pages.
Broadband providers are asked not to allow the traffic to be directed on the basis of any of the above. They should be allowed to upgrade their network including edge caching, but they should never be allowed to prioritize the results displayed to the users.

Google is a supporter of various methods to enhance the web performance. This includes edge caching which will store the data in a temporarily manner. However, Google doesn’t consider this as a violation of their network neutrality concept.

Google has made it clear that, they don’t have any opposition towards the collocation or caching policies of the broadband providers. None of the agreements made by Google for collocation wants it that the traffic from Google search engine needs to be prioritized over other search engine results. Google warns that, the policies followed by the broadband providers should not affect the open internet or the innovation of the internet in a positive manner. This is why Google is committed to the neutrality of network.
