Hello everyone! I recently received a notification from the ECA (Entertainment Consumers Association) about getting net neutrality up on its feet.
Want to know more? Please, read ahead!
“Now is the time for you to stand up for your rights and join millions of Americans of every political persuasion in the fight for Net Neutrality. Net Neutrality is the principle that ensures that gamers are free to go where they want, do what they like, and connect with whom they choose online. Congressmen Ed Markey (D-Mass.) and Anna Eshoo (D-Calif.) have introduced H.R. 3458, the Internet Freedom Preservation Act of 2009.
Take action now and tell Congress to make Net Neutrality the law of the land, http://action.theeca.com/t/2858/campaign.jsp?campaign_KEY=2121.
Without Net Neutrality, your Internet Service Provider is free to: charge you extra for playing World of Warcraft, to interfere with Xbox Live, or to completely shut off your ability to access for favorite web sites. Net Neutrality effects your entire online experience.
Speak out to enshrine Net Neutrality as a principle of the internet, http://action.theeca.com/t/2858/campaign.jsp?campaign_KEY=2121.
This is our best chance yet in making sure that Net Neutrality is passed by Congress. The head of the FCC supports it, the President of the United States supports it, and we’re asking you to make sure to tell Congress you support it. Take a moment to send them the message to make Net Neutrality the law.”
I’d like to thank the ECA for sending me these messages through e-mail and facebook. The above message is verbatim to what I received. This affects all of us, online gamers especially! Take matters into your own hands and tell our representatives how you feel about this!
