The Fight for Net Neutrality: A Call to Action

The battle for internet freedom has seen its share of skirmishes over the years. We’ve collectively rallied against a series of legislative threats—SOPA, PIPA, CISPA, ACTA, and others—emerging victorious each time. Most recently, in 2015, we championed the cause of Net Neutrality, securing free and open access to our internet infrastructure. However, recent developments from the FCC suggest that this hard-fought victory is now in jeopardy.

As citizens and digital denizens, it’s imperative that we engage in a serious dialogue about the future of Net Neutrality. The time to act is now, and we need your voice in this critical conversation.
