Please act immediately to save the Internet.
If this continues the internet, its businesses and its community will be destroyed.
Ask yourself; Why is the internet a success?
I remember when I was first introduced to the internet in 1998 as a child. It was hailed as the greatest invention to come to mankind; An educational tool, a social tool, an entertainment tool, a way of communication that was connecting the world.
A place where everyone, no matter how small, had (and has) an equal opinion.
It is unfair to humanity and to your children to take this away from them.
