I decided to sing off-key at my cat and my voice is really hoarse
this string of words has been in my drafts for two days & the end result is exactly what you think it is
Net Neutrality is Dead and You Can Expect Your Internet to Change on April 23rd
Yeah, no, I’m cross-tagging because the lack of attention this is getting overall is pissing me off.
Ajit Pai killed Net Neutrality. You’ll start seeing the effects you were warned about on April 23rd. Oh, and he apparently got an award for Courage from the NRA gun nuts, too.
You can still help by calling your senators and representatives. We just need ONE MORE PERSON on our side to get the senate portion of Congress to overrule the FCC’s decision to kill net neutrality. The battle for the net won’t end there, but it’s a start. Go to battleforthenet to find out who your reps are and where they stand, and CONTACT THEM.
Twenty-three states are also suing the FCC for this. I haven’t looked into it yet, but I assume big businesses like Google and Amazon are as well. Nevertheless, we can’t rely on lengthy lawsuits alone. The changes to your internet start in less than two months. We don’t have a whole lot of time.
Blow this up. Contact your reps. Please, do something! We HAVE to get the decision overruled!
Senator Edward Markey of Massachusetts has officially introduced a resolution that could save net neutrality. Named the Congressional Review Act “resolution of disapproval,” should the resolution be passed, it would undo the FCC’s vote on net neutrality. However, if Senator Markey does not obtain the majority vote by April 23rd, then the net neutrality rules will officially be changed. Not only that, the bill would have to survive in the House of Representatives and dodge a veto by President Trump. A hopeful outcome in the future is that by putting pressure on the House and creating more awareness, net neutrality can become a critical issue in the 2018 elections in the fall.
