We support net neutrality and want to keep the internet free and open for people around the world. The threat of preferential access affects small online shops such as the ones run by many artisans in this community.

The banners are all over reddit today and we wanted to show our support as well. Shavers in the US should be aware of what net neutrality is and how it affects how the internet is used.

The FCC’s 2015 Open Internet Order was a huge victory for Internet users. Thanks to the millions of us who spoke up for a free and open Internet, we won essential net neutrality protections.

Now those protections could disappear, as FCC Chairman Ajit Pai is considering reversing the Open Internet Order and giving major telecommunications companies an unprecedented level of control over how we use the Internet.

Under Pai’s plan, the FCC would relinquish its authority to enforce its common-sense, light-touch net neutrality rules, thus giving ISPs free rein to engage in unfair practices like site blocking and throttling.

Please tell your members of Congress to oppose efforts to roll back net neutrality protections.
