Or maybe people are willing to go the extra mile to get a neutral party on board who might otherwise do nothing because I am not comfortable taking action on an issue I don't really understand.

I don't see it being relitigated. Most stuff here seems pro net neutrality, but with good explanations instead of the political sniping I was seeing before I asked.

So... did they succeed? Do the pro net-neutrality explanations make sense and persuade you? And if so, what do you plan to do in this critical moment before the impending FCC vote?


Yes, they succeeded.

I did tweet a few things recommended on the break the internet article and I am debating what else I might do. I recently moved, so I have not yet registered to vote and I am not a phone person. I also recently started over on Twitter, FB and other things. I am not sure my efforts make any real difference. I also have only voted twice in my life. Politics is kind of a foreign land for me.

But I do feel I understand it better and it does matter.
