The future of the Internet is being considered by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). You have until July 15th to submit comments.
On July 1, people who support protecting Internet equality–equal access for everyone–without wealthy corporations being able to buy better service than the rest of us, came together to perform a “musical” at the FCC entitled, “Which Side Are You On, Tom?”
The action focused on FCC Chair Tom Wheeler who has proposed a tiered Internet based on fees. The action is urging people to comment on the FCC rule-making and urge the Commission to reclassify the Internet as a common carrier, a public utility that cannot discriminate.
