Muddy water on Net Neutrality
There has been some deliberate misinformation promulgated by the telecoms on this issue.

We want "bit parity".. where the bits of information get the same priority in the pipeline, regardless of whose "bits" they are. The telecoms are calling this "over regulation".

Suffice it to say... If the "ad" is paid for by a telecom, it is NOT in the best interest of freedom of information.

The internet is PUBLIC SQUARE! It is absolutely necessary to keep this line of communication open and as uncorrupted as possible. It should be enshrined into our Constitutional right of assembly as soon as possible.

ANY attempt to censor this stream of information does NOT HAVE THE NEEDS OF THE PEOPLE AT HEART. And we will know them by their attempts to cut us off. They are, this time, attempting an economic way to discriminate.
