IMPORTANT -- anyone who likes using the internet, read this!!

This is a VERY well written rant about what this whole Net Neutrality thing is about. The tv ads and stuff are set up to purposely confuse people into thinking it's a bad thing, but it isn't. Please, PLEASE go read the post, then read the links, and act.

Read this article in the Washington Post, too ( Read more... )

OMG! I had NO idea about this! Haven't been watching the news or listening to the radio much because I've been sick. OMG. Have emailed my congresscirtters, and will now spread the word!

Scary, isn't it? They usually run the ads during the 10pm show (on whatever channel) and they're so confusing... It's the typical political style ad thing, so you have no idea who's really saying what... Blech.

Ugh, that's so typical! And it's like they geared it just so I, personally, wouldn't notice. I usually only watch about 15 minutes of the ten o'clock news, and if I watch any more, I mute the commercials and stick my nose in a book till the show comes back. ;)

Seriously though, this whole thing is just infuriating. And that LJ post you linked to says the House has already passed it. Argh! Just- ARGH!

Yeah. Luckily, the Senate seems to have more sense, so I'm hoping it crashes and burns there...
