As you all know, one of our biggest causes is supporting measures that help preserve the free and open internet, which is under threat worldwide from those who want to exercise more control over how you access the web at large. We don’t think that’s right, and feel strongly that users should be able to access all websites (including Reddit!) with equal ease and speed. No one—not the government, and not ISPs—should interfere in what sites you choose to visit.
Nevertheless, there have been a number of legislative efforts to try and restore Net Neutrality rules, and the newest one is making real waves. The Save the Internet Act would enshrine the principles of Net Neutrality into law, preventing internet service providers from blocking or throttling websites, or from allowing paid prioritization (that is, creating paid “fast lanes” for the big guys who can afford it, or for other content ISPs have an interest in).
If Net Neutrality is something you care about, be sure to spread the word.
