In Chile, net neutrality is regulated by the Law Nº 20.453, known as the Chilean net neutrality law. The law was issued on August 18, 2010, becoming the first country in the world to enact a law related to the net neutrality principle.[1][2]
The law modified the General Law of Telecommunications, adding three articles —24 H, 24 I and 24 J— which establish rights for the Internet users and obligations for Internet service providers. In addition, the law give enforcement powers to the regulator, the Telecommunications Undersecretary (Subsecretaría de Telecomunicaciones, Subtel).
