"Save the Internet" and Protect DU
IF AT&T starts charging websites for faster connections for people using AT&T as an ISP, it will be bad for DU.

Either Skinner will have to fork over a bunch of money to AT&T for this to be one of the fast-tier websites.

Or this website will get slower. (Giving priority to some traffic means slowing down the rest of the traffic.)

Please contact Congress for Net Neutrality:

1. THIS IS C R I T I C A L and something that your Republican
friends can also get riled up about. Get everyone calling and writing Congress about this across party lines.

The INternet was developed with tax payer money. It drives the economy. To have anything less than Net Neutrality will not only be a betrayal of constituents but also a threat to our economic position in the world.

4. I believe these two threads are related.
It's all part of the same program to disempower the American People from communicating. This congress and the White House prefer a dumbed down America, making it easier for them avoid accountability and to manipulate us for their own selfish, greedy power hungry agenda.
