I understand this this topic has been brought up before on Fluther, but because I believe this is a super important subject and because we have about 3 weeks left to fight this, I’m bringing it up again.

For those who don’t know:
Comcast, Verizon, AT&T, and Time Warner Cable are joining forces to mess our internet freedoms up. They are going to limit bandwidth to sites they don’t like or sites that are in competition with what they are providing/ owning. This means certain sites like movie or music streaming sites will be slowed down a lot.
They are going to be able to block websites that have content/information they don’t agree with.

AND, they are going to put small business in danger by applying data caps to their websites, and because it’s a small business they may not be able to keep up with all the charges.

They are basically also going to make us pay for “Packages” Like, for example, 20$ a month or year for social networking and 20$ for music streaming and 20$ for movie streaming like Netflix. They will treat it like cableTV. They will bundle up things and make you pay extra for things we shouldn’t have to pay for.

We have until December 14th!!!!! July 12th was the day of action, but it isn’t too late!!!!!!!! Even if you already signed, it wouldn’t hurt to sign again!!!

Here is a source to call/ write local congress
Here Is an article talking about Comcast possibly making users pay for “Fast lanes”
Here is an easy explanation of net neutrality.

I know this may be considered a duplicate question, but again, it’s super important
