By now I’m sure you’ve heard about this, but just in case you haven’t, click into “Net Neutrality” under siege on BlogHer for an excellent summary.
Earlier today on digg.com there was a front page story posing the question “When Did Network Neutrality Become a Partisan Issue?”
Here’s the answer: It became partisan the moment the telco lobbyists got enough reps mobilized in Congress to actually get legislation introduced, and now it will remain a partisan issue, as it should, since it is nothing more than smoke and mirrors to get some pork into the hands of the telcos.
Don’t let it happen. Do you really want to go back to the days of “walled gardens” where you have access to some, but not all, of the Internet? Let your voice be your choice — go to savetheinternet.com if you haven’t already and speak up for a free and accessible Internet without corporate interference. You will not be aligning yourself with a political party, but just agreeing to a straightforward statement of principles.
