Tell the FCC to restore net neutrality

Created by R.D. on January 14, 2014

We want FCC Chairman Tom Wheeler to correct the agency's mistakes and reclassify ISPs as the telecommunications services they are.

An appeals court ruled against net neutrality. Net neutrality protects the consumers against their Internet Service Providers (ISPs) in an unequal marketplace.

This ruling means that ISPs can discriminate against or even block which websites and services they provide. For example, if Comcast feels like Netflix is competing against its own video service, they can choose to require Netflix to pay a premium fee for consumers to access it or even block it entirely.

The only people who win from this are big businesses, while the consumers are hurt.
