right now, you are able to access everything on the internet, correct? it’s not like cable tv, where you’re forced to pay a company to only give you a limited range of shitty tv shows bombarded with shitty commercials all for an expensive and unfair deal.
the internet is about to be exactly like that. everything, from accessing sites like Tumblr to ao3, to seeing your financial aid packet online, to googling dumb shit on wikipedia, to laughing at internet memes, to streaming things online, all of that is because the internet is open and free. and it is all about to be taken away from you. you are about to lose your net neutrality.
