For those of you who donât know what net neutrality is:
âNet neutrality is the principle that Internet service providers and governments regulating most of the Internet must treat all data on the Internet the same, and not discriminate or charge deferentially by user, content, website, platform, application, type of attached equipment, or method of communication.â - Wikipedia.Â
TL:DR Itâs the internetâs deceleration of independence.
This git person of ill dispute:Â Â
Trumpâs FCC chairman, Ajit Pai, wants to take Net Neutrality away from YOU by DECEMBER. once itâs gone it WILL NOT COME BACK. I should not have to explain to you why this has to be stopped.Â
cr1tikal put it best:Â âYouâll basically be buying loot boxes from your ISP. The internet will have have loot boxes where you pay more for certain websites and youâll be buying packages that come with a random assortment of websites.â
Thatâs just the beginning.Â
Without the internet many of us would have never had the opportunity to meet and express ideas. YOUR free speech is on the line here and if we cross that line I fear for our futures. Many of us only know our histories because of the internet, we must refuse to let ourselves be erased again.Â
Simple. Do what yâall did to EA, the public outcry and rage against the lootbox and gambling systems had EA back peddling. Apply that to stopping the FCC and we wont loose Net Neutrality. Remember governments exist to serve the people, not the other way. Not banks, not corporations.
