Net neutrality is Watch Class of Lies Onlinein jeopardy. It's time for you to take action.
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC), which is the U.S. government's media regulator, is planning to completely scrap Obama-era rules protecting the idea that the internet should be an even playing field. Without these rules, the door is open for internet service providers like Verizon, AT&T, and Comcast to potentially favor or discriminate against certain content and services, accept money for preferential treatment, or even charge users more for better access.
Put simply: online free speech, innovation, and creativity are at stake.
