Net Neutrality is internet service providers giving all information sources equal speed, equal protection. Losing net neutrality means ISPs give bandwidth priority to sources they prefer (ie. sources which pay them the most, Rothschilds, Bilderberg, the 1%, Big Brother) and it may mean your ISP charging you more for you to use your favorite sites, so loss of net neutrality promotes corporate/ISP media bias which undermines free speech and promotes censorship.

I can sympathize with liberty-defending free-marketeers and occasionally even defend corporate rights, but if you trust AT&T, Comcast, T-Mobile, and Verizon with more power to decide who sees what, you're not paying attention.

And don't buy the bullshit about Google and Facebook giving a fuck about you. The only reason they defend net neutrality is because they use the most bandwidth and don't want to be slowed down or undermined by ISPs who hate them for censoring rights activists and bending over backwards for Big Brother's Orwellian mass surveillance state. Unfortunately, ISPs who would penalize Oggle and Fascistbook are small and few and can't compete with global bankster billionaires, so the few possible benefits of ditching net neutrality are virtually non-existent.

If you want your internet to upload and download as fast as Bill Gates', you want net neutrality. If you want to destroy free speech, let the fascists off the leash.

Don’t Let Congress Compromise on Net Neutrality
A few months ago, we received confirmation of what many of us had feared: incoming Federal Communications Commission Chair Ajit Pai announced his plans to eliminate the clear, enforceable protections for net neutrality that the Commission had implemented in 2015. - https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2017/08/dont-let-congress-compromise-net-neutrality

Porn Stars Explain Net Neutrality

We used to say "seeing is believing"; now googling is believing. With 24/7 access to nearly all of the world's information at our fingertips, we no longer trek to the library or the encyclopedia shelf in search of answers. We just open our browsers, type in a few keywords and wait for the information to come to us. Indeed, the Internet has revolutionized the way we learn and know, as well as how we interact with each other. And yet this explosion of technological innovation has also produced a curious paradox: even as we know more, we seem to understand less. While a wealth of literature has been devoted to life with the Internet, the deep philosophical implications of this seismic shift have not been properly explored until now. Demonstrating that knowledge based on reason plays an essential role in society and that there is much more to &#8220;knowing&#8221; than just acquiring information, leading philosopher Michael Patrick Lynch shows how our digital way of life makes us overvalue some ways of processing information over others, and thus risks distorting what it means to be human. With far-reaching implications, Lynch's argument charts a path from Plato's cave to Shannon's mathematical theory of information to Google Glass, illustrating that technology itself isn't the problem, nor is it the solution. Instead, it will be the way in which we adapt our minds to these new tools that will ultimately decide whether or not the "Internet of Things"&#8212;all those gadgets on our wrists, in our pockets and on our laps&#8212;will be a net gain for humanity. Along the way, Lynch uses a philosopher's lens to examine some of the most urgent issues facing digital life today, including how social media is revolutionizing the way we think about privacy; why a greater reliance on Wikipedia and Google doesn't necessarily make knowledge "more democratic"; and the perils of using "big data" alone to predict cultural trends. Promising to modernize our understanding of what it means to be human in the digital age, The Internet of Us builds on previous works by Nicholas Carr, James Gleick and Jaron Lanier to give us a necessary guide on how to navigate the philosophical quagmire that is the Information Age.

Today’s the Day: Let's Save Net Neutrality
You might have noticed something unusual when you visited the EFF website today: our site was “blocked” unless you shelled out for “premium” Internet access. As part of the day of action to support net neutrality , we decided to imagine what might happen if FCC Chairman Ajit Pai caves to industry pressure and abandons the net neutrality rules the FCC adopted just two years ago. If you don’t want to live in that future, it’s time to take action
