The Threat is real! How Does This Threat To Internet Freedom Affect You?              
An Enlightening List




This is just the beginning. Cable and telco giants want to eliminate the Internet's open road in favor of a tollway that protects their status quo while stifling new ideas and innovation. If they get their way, they'll shut down the free flow of information and dictate how you use the Internet.

The SavetheInternet.com Coalition is made up of groups from across the political spectrum that have banded together to save the First Amendment of the Internet: network neutrality. No corporation or political party is funding these efforts.

Congress is pushing a law that would abandon the Internet's First Amendment-- a principle called Network Neutrality that prevents companies like AT&T, Verizon and Comcast from deciding which web sites work best for you--based on what site pays them the most. If the public doesn't speak up now, our elected officials will cave to a multi-million dollar lobbying campaign.

Don't Let Congress Ruin The Internet!

Now with Cleland, another heavy hitter and the new 'poster boy' for the 'Right' in it's campaign to cause yet, another distraction to give the big boys time to settle in, do remember Scot Cleland who served as DAS of S for 'telecom trade' under George H.W. Bush, for he's pushing real hard against net neutrality.

All the things we love to do and take for granted like uploading a YouTube clip...this is going to cost dearly if enough petitions are NOT signed and sent to Congress.

Note: Google has agreed to purchase online video phenomenon YouTube for $1.65 Billion in stock. The annoncement came today.
I wonder, when the telco giants are in control, how much it will cost us to download...anything we are now doing for free!!!

  3. Dugg, I absolutely agree with you. Propaganda only goes so far in controlling the people, it won't control your opponents. They know this, and are determined to shut down any opposition.

    Which should be a clear sign to ANYONE with any brains that this bunch does NOT care about liberty or our Constitution or Bill of Rights! Far as I'm concerned, they are all traitors and should be treated accordingly.

    Thanks for keeping this in people's awareness, Darby!
