If you love the net , and use the net, as much as I do then it's time to get involved in keeping it free for all to use. Big business is about to carve it up with fee structures that will benefit them more than the public.
It's time to write/call your congress person to let them know how you feel before it's to late.
Google and Verizon Near Deal on Web Pay Tiers....... “The point of a network neutrality rule is to prevent big companies from dividing the Internet between them,” said Gigi B.
