    The FCC vote allowing your ISP to lock huge parts of the internet behind caps and paywalls is tomorrow. Today is the last day to pressure Congress to stop this.

        That's not how #netneutrality works. If that were the case, half the internet would already be walled off. This simply allows the @FCC to enforce how telecoms can provide access to consumers, which is without arbitrary throttling and barriers.

        "They'll get around to it." What makes you so sure? #netneutrality has pretty much been in place since the birth of the internet. It didn't need enforcing until recent years.

        Because enforce a even playing field is clearly fascist, way to go there champ. You do realize that even without bureaucratic redtapes, laying cable is still expensive. And low economic barrier to entry is a cornerstone of free market, right?

        Call the FCC as well! It's a 2/3 split! If we can get just on more Commissioner to flip their vote, we can save #NetNeutrality! * FCC: 1-888-225-5322 * Ajit Pai: 202-418-1000 * Brendan Carr: 202-418-2200 * Mike O’Rielly: 202-418-2300 * Whitehouse Switchboard: 202-456-1414

        Pretty sad to see a guy running from the US government lobbying to give it more control over the flow of information on the internet.

        But my internet is already locked behind a data cap... which coincidentally began shortly after "net neutrality" began in 2015.

        If what you say is true, then why is Ajit Pai going so hard on the net neutrality repeal? Ignoring the will of the VAST MAJORITY of people (about 98% for NN (no bots), 70-80% (with bots)). Enforcing his own will on everyone like a dictator (personal experience with dictatorship)

        Regulation is not the answer. Mesh networking is. That is how the Internet was designed. ISP's are an abomination. Before the Net was crippled, they used to say "The Net interprets censorship as damage, and routes around it" https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/John_Gilmore …
