Far East Cynic

Once again-with feeling.

Why you should be concerned about the upcoming Comcast NBC merger, and why Net Neutrality is important to you.

A free and open internet is the single greatest technology of our culture, and control should not be at the mercy of corporations.

  • 2 .A free and open internet stimulates competition.
  • 3. A free and open internet helps prevent unfair pricing practices.
  • 4. A free and open internet promotes innovation.
  • 5.  A free and open internet is more trustworthy and honest.
  • 6.  A free and open internet drives businesses.
  • 7. A free and open internet protects the freedom of speech.

Without network neutrality, big corporations can control what, where, and when we access the internet. Please do your part to help keep the internet a cornerstone of American freedom and potential.

  1. Freedom of speech is a fantastic privilege but a line must be drawn somewhere. Some people take it too far and that really gives government agencies the backup they need to restrict freedom of speech.

  2. But it is the speed at which I can distribute my superior content. Without neutrality-Comcast and other ISP’s can discriminate against amateurs in favor of paid media outlets.
