Getting X3D to display on your webpage is very simple. The simpliest example can be accomplished in three easy steps. These are summarized as

Net Neutrality is showing up as one of the top stories shortly after the 2014 elections. It is not an easy topic to understand, especially with all of the claims and counter-claims flying around the Internet.

The attacks "in the wild"² use Flash on IE V9, 10, and 11.
