Stop trying to FUCK-UP my internet!!

Tue Jun 19, 2007, 8:47 PM
I fucking hate lobbyist and politicians....spread this shit like peanut butter. This originated on MySpace but it certainly effects every corner of the internet. So I'm trying to post in in every corner where I have a presence. I hope that anyone potentially reading this would feel compelled to do the same.
This one is important people. Ignore all the other bullshit bulletins you've got competing for your attention and do something to protect your RIGHT to access any website you want WITHOUT corporate roadblocks, speed limits or tolls. Don't let big business dictate your internet traffic!!The Electronic Frontier Foundation

Phone and cable company lobbyists are attacking Internet freedom again in Washington.

The FCC recently launched an official inquiry into Net Neutrality. They need to hear stories about why an open Internet is important to your life, work and family -- and to our democracy.

At SavetheInternet.com, you can read stories from others, view photographs, watch new videos, and join a national conversation about the future of the Internet. You even create your own personal comment page to share with others: [link]

This may be the best chance we have this year to demonstrate to Washington that protecting Internet freedom is an issue that matters to millions of Americans. The FCC needs to know why Net Neutrality is important to you. Tell them how an open Internet impact your daily life, your business and your ability to connect with others.

The public comment period ends July 15. Please share your story today:

<div>"Net Neutrality is essential to free speech, equal opportunity and economic innovation in America. Since the FCC removed this basic protection in 2005, the top executives of phone and cable companies have stated their intention to become the Internet's gatekeepers and to discriminate against Web sites that don't pay their added tolls.

This fundamental change would end the open Internet as we know it. It would damage my ability to connect with others, share information and participate in our 21st century democracy and economy. The FCC must ensure that broadband providers do not block, interfere with or discriminate against any lawful Internet traffic based on its ownership, source or destination."

Do you want to see a different version of the internet based upon whether your ISP is AT&T, Comcast, Verizon, or Time Warner? No? Then go to www.savetheinternet.com and find out how to keep these companies from LEGALLY manipulating what they allow you to see on the internet based upon whose wires you unfortunately happen to connect through. If you do nothing and this bill passes in the senate, you have no one to blame but yourself for the crippled and corporately censored internet of our future.
