Today, many of your favorite websites are offering a harrowing glimpse into the future of the Internet. As the FCC \u2014 under the direction of Verizon puppet<\/a> Ajit Pai \u2014 prepares to gut net neutrality<\/a>, advocacy group Fight for the Future (no, not the X-Files <\/em>movie) is asking you to fight back.<\/p>\n

With its \u201cBreak the Internet\u201d<\/a> campaign, Fight for the Future is asking \u2019net surfers everywhere, from casual users to major websites, to announce loudly the importance of saving net neutrality. For example, several high-traffic websites \u2014 including Reddit, Tumblr and Patreon \u2014 will be adding pop-ups warning of the dangers of a closed Internet, like throttled loading speeds and directions to upgrade their internet package to access certain sites.<\/p>\n

Fight for the Future is asking you to do your part, too, whether it\u2019s tweeting every 10 or so minutes about the repeal, changing your relationship status on Facebook to \u201cmarried to the free and open internet\u201d or updating your LinkedIn page to include such experience as \u201cdefending the free and open internet.\u201d<\/p>\n

Net neutrality is a non-partisan issue, and we urge you to make your voice heard in defending it. And before you roll your eyes and go back to that incognito tab, we should tell you: Even Pornhub knows what\u2019s up<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
