Protect Net Neutrality Now! Imagine Steemit loading slower than it already is!
FCC Chair Ajit Pai is about to announce a vote to slash America's net neutrality rules—meaning companies like Comcast & Verizon will be able to block apps, slow websites, and charge fees to control what you see & do online. Once Pai announces the vote, the situation becomes desperate.
Steemit already loads relatively slow, imagine it loading impossibly slow! This is censorship and throttling. Do something before it gets bad by visiting https://www.battleforthenet.com/
What is Net Neutrality and why does it matter?
Net neutrality is the principle that Internet providers like Comcast & Verizon should not control what we see and do online. In 2015, startups, Internet freedom groups, and 3.7 million commenters won strong net neutrality rules from the US Federal Communication Commission (FCC). The rules prohibit Internet providers from blocking, throttling, and paid prioritization—"fast lanes" for sites that pay, and slow lanes for everyone else.
