Hey what the fuck happened to all the net neutrality coverage
This shit is still happening people, and all of the sudden its disappeared from my dash almost entirely over night
I don’t know why, but I think people are automatically being unfollowed from the Net Neutrality tag. It happens to me every time I try to follow it. I’ll follow the tag, come back 20 minutes later & I’ll for some reason have unfollowed the tag automatically. I think this may be happening to a majority of people in an attempt to silence the resistance. Please take a screen shot of this post in case it gets deleted.
hey yeah can yall reblog this cause this is very important. Tumblr is ACTIVELY trying to silence out outrage at this by making us incapable of seeing coverage of events. We’re all gonna have to come together and step up about this.
Every little note counts, spread the word, dont give in so easily
I just checked this and i can CONFIRM that tumblr AUTOMATICALLY MAKES YOU UNFOLLOW THE NET NEUTRALITY TAGS AFTER 20 MINUTES
Please spread the word! Screen shot this post just in case it gets deleted!!
There is a reason that happens. Tumblr is OWNED by Verizon who is a leader in throwing money at getting rid of Net Neutrality. They have spent literally millions to bring it down so that they can charge you more, slow down your internet and block you from sites they do not deem appropriate. Keep sending in letters, emails and making phone calls. IF you post about it ADD links for FS!

Back in 2015 you demanded that the FCC adopt strict net neutrality rules and establish a free and open internet. And you won.
That should’ve been the end of it. But apparently not.
The new head of the FCC wants to undo the net neutrality protections you fought so hard for.
His proposed changes open the door to your web traffic being slowed down, or even blocked altogether. You could be forced to pay extra to use your favorite apps. You could even be prevented from getting news from the sources you trust.
Title II protects consumers and democracy by ensuring all voices can be heard.
You know the drill. Here’s what to do:
The FCC is taking comments from the public, and dearfcc.org is making it as simple as possible for you to make your voice heard.
You’ll just need to provide a name, an address, and then say a little bit about why rolling back Title II protections is a bad idea. If you’re not quite sure what to write, here’s something to get you started:
I’m writing to urge you to keep our Open Internet rules based on Title II in place. Without them, we could lose the internet as we know it.
The proposed changes to FCC rules would allow fast lanes for sites that pay, and force everyone else into slow lanes. We’ve already seen access to streaming services like Netflix, popular games like League of Legends, and communication platforms like FaceTime slowed down, or even blocked. Conditions like this hurt businesses large and small, and penalize the users who patronize them.
The changes also open the door to unfair taxes on internet users, and could also make it harder for blogs, nonprofits, artists, and others who can’t pay up to have their voices heard.
Please leave the existing net neutrality rules based on Title II in place.
So everyone is literally saying that “We shouldn’t even try” “net neutrality is gonna be gone” “whats the point its already gonna be gone” are probably the ones who HAVE enough money to where THEY CAN PAY for all this ridiculous shit fees and packages. Or people who literally aren’t freaking out and don’t care to do anything about it are letting “everyone else take care of it” Like y’all saw what the fuck happened with trump when you depended on everyone else doing something you can easily do. Those people not freaking out don’t care or don’t know a whole lot about the facts that they’ll never see their internet friends again or don’t care that all those aritsts they follow will never be heard from or anything again really, All the news shit? Gone You don’t fucking get it.. They won’t be able to watch youtube videos all the time. ALL THOSE CONTENT CREATORS ON YOUTUBE? GONE! LONG DISTANCE RELATIONSHIPS? GONE! PEOPLE GETTIING THEIR ART AND IDEAS FOR TV SHOWS AND HAVING NETWORKS NOTICE THEM? GONE! BUYING THINGS OFF THE INTERNET? GONE!
You can’t just IGNORE this problem either because (I don’t like politics) (I don’t like reality) (I don’t like this sort of drama) BECAUSE HEY THIS EFFECTS YOU TOO
THE INTERNET WILL BE FUCKING GONE AND DEAD UNLESS YOU (MYSELF INCLUDED) DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT.
IF YOU DON’T WANT THAT HAPPENING THEN GET OFF YOUR ASSES AND TEXT THE NUMBER OR MAKE THE CALLS. BE ANNOYING. CALL THEM UNTIL THEY LITERALLY BLOCK YOUR NUMBER OR SOMETHING.GET PISSED OFF FORCE YOURSELF TO BE HEARD.
In case anyone argues that abuses won’t happen, remind them: They already have.
One example:
2007 – AT&T censored Pearl Jam because lead singer criticized President Bush.
This is shamefully and dangerously tyrannical.
The article concludes:
In the absence of the current net neutrality rules, internet providers
routinely used their powers to violate open internet principles,
manipulate competition and even engage in censorship
Also, while we’re on the subject of broadband providers: Why on earth do we let them offer us service based on a “maximum speed” instead of a “minimum speed”? That’s like buying a car and the salesman says, “I guarantee this car won’t go over 75mph. I can’t guarantee that it’ll go faster than 20mph, but I promise, it definitely won’t ever get to 75mph!”
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?
we’re almost ¾ of the way there!! c’mon guys, every bit counts!
will it ever stop
fucking signal boost
IF YOU ARE NOT SIGNAL BOOSTING THIS YOU ARE NOT PAYING ATTENTION.
IF THE U.S. FALLS TO THIS IT WILL OPEN OTHER DANGEROUS DOORS INTERNATIONALLY.
Start a civil war against the US government.
Signal boost for my us followers
I try to keep the things I reblog as blog/mun-centric as possible, but this is something I just can’t let slide.
I’ve been following this cause since last year. I’ve signed petitions, I’ve called representatives, I’ve been to protests, the whole nine yards.
This right here? This is not a joke. This is seriously happening, guys.
Remember the Wikipedia shutdown? That was to protest this right here. If you haven’t taken action against this yet, frankly, what is wrong with you? If this doesn’t get stopped, we’re going to lose the thing that brings us all together unless we shell out huge sums of cash to these corrupt bastards.
COPY PASTE, SHARE AND ACTUALLY E-MAIL THESE FOLKS:
These are the emails of the 5 people on the FCC roster. These are the five people deciding the future of the internet.
The two women have come out as No votes. We need only to convince ONE of the other members to flip to a No vote to save Net Neutrality. Blow up their inboxes!
