The Reason why Net Neutrality is Important

The reason why Net Neutrality is important is because it is part of Our US Democracy and its the envy around the world due to the Free Equal Access and speed to the Internet for We the people of the United States no matter of one's finances. 

Net Neutrality is Open and a free internet experience that is unlimited, educational, and informative.  It has become a necessity like water, air, and public land.

It has become a part of our Constitutional Freedoms like our freedom of expression, freedom of press, and freedom to protest peacefully. 

Net Neutrality is part of our democracy.
On December 14, 2017, Ajit Pai, Chairman of the FCC-Federal Communication Commission will vote to distinguish what We the People have access to when it comes to the internet.

The change would feel like living in a Dictatorship like Russia and North Korea - the government in these two countries control what their citizens watch, read, hear, and see.  It is a form of suppression and oppression of the internet.

Net neutrality is just as important as our constitutional freedoms. Imagine if your child goes to school and is injured or diagnosed with cancer and can't go to class for about a month or more, there's an internet option where a child can learn from home and still have a classroom experience through the internet.  This is one example of how important net neutrality is to public education and higher education. 

Would it be fair for those who depend on the Internet for school, business or entrepreneurship to be limited or deprived access to the internet because of one's finances? 

We, The People, cannot allow an administration who seems to be determined to dismantle our US Democracy for Vladimir Putin's playbook of propaganda and tyranny.

We, The People, of the USA cannot stand idly by while the FCC majority dismantle our Democracy on December 14, 2017.  We must Protect Net Neutrality as it is a "necessity"  and part of We The People's USA Democracy.

Call FCC to tell them to Keep the internet Free and Open.  To protect Net Neutrality.  Call 202.418.1000 - It is the office of Chairman Ajit Pai Federal Communication Commission. This article is by Melody Villanueva, December 5, 2017.
