Save #NetNeutrality
This Thursday, the FCC is expected to vote to repeal Net Neutrality rules instituted in 2015. Without these rules, it will again be in the hands of internet service providers to block websites, throttle internet speeds for certain services, and sensor online content β threatening the open internet we have now.
Here is what one of the Democrat FCC commissioners had to say about what is at stake with this vote:
"If you care about openness and transparency; if you care about enhanced opportunity, whether it is our access to our online services and opportunities, whether itβs the FCC enabling through its universal service program, opportunities to build infrastructure, particularly in rural communities, where there are serious divides, economic, technology, and infrastructure divides; if you care about that and more, then what the majority is poised to vote to do is incredibly problematic. It is incredibly hurtful when it comes to innovation and investment and opportunity."
We cannot let this pass.
