Net neutrality

I don’t know how informed you are about net neutrality. I feel like it kind of went unnoticed in some online communities, especially in the wake of thanksgiving. In short, we need to keep the internet free. How we use the internet should be up to us and not hindered by these money hungry corporations.

Can you imagine a world in which we lose access to scientific literature? Already, much of our nation suffers from scientific illiteracy. If this went through, only a handful of people in the world would be informed about the species and processes of our planet, and the uninformed public would not be able take a stand against further ecological destruction. If we don't stand up to this, learning will be more difficult for people like you and me and our ecological awareness will blur.

The internet is the greatest tool humanity has ever created and to limit it is to limit us. This is not left vs. right, this is right vs. wrong. Keep the internet in the hands of the people and sign this petition!
