Big ISP’s seem to have forgotten that the internet would be nothing but a “series of tubes <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Series_of_tubes>” without the content that society puts onto it. The real information services are librarians that help people make sense of everything that’s out there.

> Team Cable is scared of the power and influence we hold when we stand together. That’s why they’re doing everything they can to intimidate us, and muddy the waters. The other side is raising the stakes, but we’re not gonna roll over – not when we’re this close.

And, again, you don’t have to wait until July 12 to drive traffic to BattleForTheNet.com <http://battleforthenet.com/> to make sure the FCC and Congress get the message. If you’re ready to start now, go for it!
> So far over 50,000 people and thousands of websites have come together on July 12th to demand strong, enforceable net neutrality rooted in the only legal foundation that can ensure we are protected: Title II of the Communications Act.
> If net neutrality is lost, your Internet provider will gain new controls over what we see and do online – a move that will stifle your ability to access content, grow your company, reach new audiences, and earn a living. And, to add insult to injury, your Internet bill is guaranteed to go up.
