Save the open internet


Taylor Trask

I wanted to take a quick moment and ask anyone reading this blog to check out this website: http://www.savetheinternet.com.  The issue of Net Neutrality is gaining larger national attention, and a good deal of money is being injected on both sides, distorting the true nature of the issue.

We’re reaching a critical point where the future of the internet is now in question and we may end up with something very different than what we have now.  Imagine a United States where Comcast or AT&T could block any websites they deem inappropriate or “bandwidth heavy” or even give faster access to content they own and control.  Imagine sitting down to download some music from iTunes or watch TV on Hulu only to find that your ISP requires a higher, unconventional fee to access that kind of content.

Fairness and open standards are what allowed the internet to become the economic powerhouse it is today.  In order for future innovation and entrepreneurship to occur, we must support net neutrality.   Please contact your local congressperson or senator and ask them to preserve the open internet.
