Here's some more i found 

The FCC sided with Comcast and decided to let ISPs censor the internet. The Internet needs to stop this from happening:  cms.fightforthefuture.org/tell…

Last Wednesday, FCC Chairman Tom Wheeler announced a proposal for new rules that would allow for a “ fast lane” of Internet traffic for content providers who are willing (and able) to pay a fee. [1] The proposal reverses the FCC’s previous commitment to net neutrality and open internet and allows ISP’s like Comcast or Verizon to slow down and censor services that don’t pay the toll.

We have to be totally honest, this situation is seriously grim. But there is still hope. The FCC already knows that the Internet community wants net neutrality, but they think they can put their spin on these new rules and sneak them through. If we can prove them wrong right now with a massive public outcry, we can literally save the Internet once again.

We need to stop the FCC now. Big business groups are already ramping up lobbying efforts with the FCC in swarms since Wednesday’s announcement in support of censoring the open Internet and to ensure this dangerous proposal moves forward. [2]

This is a critical moment. In the last few weeks more than 65,000 people have taken action with us. Can you help us get to 80,000 by the end of the day today?

Don't Give Up, We Can Do This! (PLEASE READ)Last Journal Entry: 
Hey guys, look...I know pretty much everyone is tired of this.
Everyone is getting upset, anxious, mad, or some other feeling over this Net Neutrality thing...but we can't give up!
I haven't been seeing as many journals talking about how we can save Net Neutrality lately, but everyone is still doing what they can to save it.
One of the petitions has almost 1,000,000 signatures! It only needs at least 200,000 more to get there!
People have been calling into Congress! Do you guys want to know how many people have calling Congress?
759,061 total calls have been made, maybe even more! It's not just from battleforthenet.com though. There are probably other websites doing this as well!
I understand that people are also scared about this as well, because of how much of an impact this could have on everyone. To be honest, I have also been a bit anxious and scared about this. I may not sound like it, but I have been. I don't want to lose contac

I have a question. What do you think of libertarians who think net neutrality is a 'big government' conspiracy and that it's the tech companies doing the censoring?
