BEYOND THE BELTWAY: NET NEUTRALITY SUPPORT IS STRONGER THAN EVER
[SOURCE: Huffington Post, AUTHOR: Timothy Karr]
[Commentary] The results are in at the Federal Communications Commission. Tens of thousands of public comments supporting Net Neutrality flooded the agency before they closed their official inquiry on Monday. In a landslide of public support, well over 95 percent of the comments called for rules that prohibit phone and cable companies from seeing through their plans to become the new gatekeepers to the Internet -- deciding which Web sites and services users get to download before others. Internet users from all 435 congressional districts urged the FCC to protect our Internet freedom. Net Neutrality supporters include a full range of small business owners, students, churchgoers, bloggers, political candidates, educators and activists who took the time to tell the agency that protecting Net Neutrality is fundamental to their family life, work and interests.
