It's too scary to think it has come to this, but the net may not reflect freedom of speech if we don't fight to protect it from being purchased. Not only will we lose free speech, but we'll have to pay to use it as well. Does it make sense to pay AT&T, Verizon directly, or indirectly, via provider manipulation, or for the privelige of people accessing other people's ideas, art, journals?

This is so wrong! Click on the Icon Below for a link to things you can do now.

Save the Internet


Congress is now pushing a law that would end the free and open Internet as we know it. Internet providers like AT&T and Verizon are lobbying Congress hard to gut Network Neutrality, the Internet's First Amendment and the key to Internet freedom. Net Neutrality prevents AT&T from choosing which websites open most easily for you based on which site pays AT&T more. So Amazon doesn't have to outbid Barnes & Noble for the right to work more properly on your computer.

Many members of Congress take campaign contributions from these companies, and they don't think the public are paying attention to this issue. Let's show them we care - please sign this petition today.
