My mouth hung open for a bit after I watched this video (courtesy of wearetheweb.org) I mean, it's so honkin' strange, that I was sorta caught off-guard. It takes quite a bit to surprise me lately, but this thing did.
The issue at hand is net neutrality: “Net neutrality is the principle that Internet users
should be in control of what content they view and what applications
they use on the Internet.”
It has the potential to seriously disrupt how the Internet operates and change the way the world views the web.
So what's the purpose of the video? You are the Internet. So are your friends. Show your support for Internet neutrality by passing along the link to this video here (or anywhere you see it). The more exposure this issue get's, the better. Remember, taking action can make a difference! Plus, the video is oddly entertaining.
It's a serious issue, so if you have a second, check it out by Clicking Here.

Yeah, that is definitely a weird video but it is kind of scary that the internet might not be free any longer. If anyone reading this post does not want to pay a minute rate for the internet for each site you're on, like you do with phone service now, you may want to tell your congressmen and senators what you think about it.
