Reminder that Ajit Pai wants us to forget that Net Neutrality is dead.

Things seem normal now, but within the next couple of months we will start to see some changes to the internet infrastructure.

NOT DEAD. IT CAN STILL BE CHALLENGED IN THE COURTS. CALL YOUR SENATORS. CALL YOUR REPS. CONTINUE TO HARASS THEM.

update: with the recent flip in the senate, a bill deeming that repeal ineffective is gaining traction

THIS IS IMPORTANT AND WILL AFFECT EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU

sanity-schmanity:

the FCC is trying (again) to put an end to net neutrality. This will mean profit for a lot of big websites and companies like your cable or ISP, and general shittiness for everyone else. It’s not a complicated issue. It’s a shady deal that needs to be stopped.

IF NET NEUTRALITY DIES:

YOUR ISPS AND CABLE COMPANIES WILL DECIDE HOW WELL YOUR INTERNET WORKS.

YOU WILL BE CHARGED MORE FOR USING CERTAIN WEBSITES.

YOU WILL NOT HAVE ACCESS TO CERTAIN WEBSITES.

YOU WILL HAVE SLOW AND SHITTY CONNECTIONS TO CERTAIN WEBSITES.

DO NOT LET THE FCC END NET NEUTRALITY

Guys we’re being presented with an opportunity to have Ajit Pai FIRED from his position which someone as corrupt and untrustworthy as him has no right to continue holding! SPREAD THE WORD!!!
#FireAjitPai
#FireAjitSavetheNet

Also if anybody could figure out exactly where his law credentials came from so we can maybe get him disbarred from practicing law (like Jock Thompson, remember that guy?) now would be a great time.

Putting it here cuz I’d like to start the new year with decent internet.

Net Neutrality Reminder

Recently I’ve seen so much coverage for this go down after the FCC passed it’s resolution to roll back net neutrality protections, but here’s your daily reminder that the fight is NOT OVER. This bill still has to go through Congress, and Congress represents the people. Keep calling (best number is 202-224-3121), keep fighting. Don’t let your rights be stripped away without even trying to hold onto them. Tell your reps you support net neutrality before you can’t anymore.

BREAKING: The FCC just voted to repeal net neutrality, meaning we’re all screwed. TV news shows were essentially silent about this for the three weeks leading up to the vote.

When I saw this post on my dash, it kept disappearing every time the site finished loading. It had nothing to do with my blacklist extension, all evidence of this post on my dash vanished. I had to go to the blog of the person I’m reblogging it from DIRECTLY.

If you can see this post at all, even if it’s for a split second, try and like it and reblog it! Don’t let this post be hidden!
