Meanwhile, Big Cable is trying to torpedo the development of municipal fiber-optic networks – such as in Chattanooga, Tennessee – which are much faster and would provide real competition in the ISP marketplace.
Yeah and big cable has a monopoly in my area so every month I have a big Internet bill that I can scarcely afford.
As far as the slowdown to try to promote net neutrality I enabled the new feature in my blog then shortly disabled it. I found it too annoying ;-). Big companies can afford to lose a few customers to take a stand I can’t afford to lose readers as an independent blogger. Many would become annoyed and leave my blog. I am not sure if annoying people is the best way to get there message across to be honest. All that does is piss people off. Better would be a one single message asking people to join the campaign and why it matters. That is proactive rather than reactive.
Thanks for giving us some ways to get involved and make our voices heard!
