Tell the FCC What You Want from a National Internet Plan
By Megan Tady, June 3, 2009
The Federal Communications Commission is busy crafting America's first national broadband plan, and they're asking for your input. Now's your chance to tell the FCC to support an open, fast, affordable and people-powered Internet without corporate gatekeepers.
You have until July 8 to make your voice heard with the FCC. Our wish list for the Internet can become a reality if it’s backed by strong public support. Do you:
- Want to safeguard Net Neutrality so the Internet remains open and neutral?
- Want more choice of Internet providers, instead of the same companies that overcharge, deny service or unfairly block Internet content?
- Want a fast Internet that catches up with the rest of the world?
- Want an Internet that connects everyone?
Then speak up! Use this easy form to appeal for a people-powered Internet.
The big media bosses will be adding their own comments, in favor of anti-consumer practices like content inspection and usage penalties. If their voices outnumber ours, then the free-flowing Internet we have today could be lost, or it could never evolve into something even better.
So it’s important that you push back with what you want -- an open, accessible Internet. File your comments now.

The conversation was punctuated with sly glances at my christian louboutin. In fact, one man addressed my christian louboutin instead of my face with the same fervour with which some misguided souls talk to a girl's chest. Then something ironic happened. The television was switchedon and Equinox was running a programme on paraphiliacs. Showing a pair of christian louboutin very similar to mine, it explained that people who were into such christian louboutin boots furniture were very kinky indeed. The dinner guest with the christian louboutin boots fetish listened, eyes shi ning. I hadto break cover and explain that this was just an experiment. His eyes dulled.

No MAIN
As long as North Carolina's Mountain Area Information Network has nothing to do with the future of the internet, I think we'll be alright.
Agreed
Wholeheartedly. MAIN is worthless.
Glitch? or Sabotage?
Not sure why the form isn't working, but then, I'm on dial-up. Could be any one of a number of reasons. However, filing a complaint with the fcc is fairly straightforward, I did it just the other day in opposition to the McDonalds commercial and their new glass ware promo that aired over the NBC affiliate WPTZ in the Burlington, Vermont area - a black and white guy seated at a table, black waitress precents the extra value meal, with a Coke glass. the white guy says:
wow, what's this?
the waitress says: it's a little something extra for you.
and he responds by presenting his fist, and says: Gimme some.
She responds with a very quizzical expression, slowly bringing her fist to his. He snaps his hand up, fingers open, and wiggles them while saying:
FIST BUMP FIRE WORKS. A LITTLE SOMETHING EXTRA FOR YOU.
I would never have complained about the commercail were it not for the social context. It is stage craft. Stage craft of a most reprehensible kind.
Consider the 'fist bump' that made the national news during the election, widely ridiculed and condemned by conservatives. Now consider the current nominee for the supreme court. Her views on abortion are unknown.
The first time I saw this commercial it appeared on Sunday evening, May 31, 2009. That was the day Dr. George Tiller was slain while attending church services.
FIST BUMP FIRE WORKS.
It is as if I hear someone laughing at what appears to be a natural consequence of the election of a Liberal president. It is a very clever, subliminal kind of bullshit that I find intolerable. It serves neither the interest of McDonalds, Coke, the public, and it is most certainly insensitive to the family of Dr. Tiller.
So anyway. I was just at the FCC website yesterday.

Note, that page is for complaints. They may have a different page for COMMENTS. Not sure. I'll look some more.

FistBump Fireworks is F-ed Up after all
At first I thought you were just insane, and am still not quite following the Sonia Sotomayor aspect of your post... but there IS something very F-ed up about that FistBump Fireworks commercial. The thing that bugs me most is the "I'm sort of a terrorist" expression on the black dude's face... it's totally out of character and no way in hell was it random or unintentional. Somebody directed and edited that commercial to look EXACTLY like it comes off.... condescending and with racial undertones.
We need the FCC to get
We need the FCC to get involved in protecting the Internet. Local laws won't do the job. If anything, these large corporate entities need to be broken up and tightly regulated. They have their eyes on the goal of chipping away at free speech and an open Internet.
Too much time on your hands
You obviously have way too much time on your hands! I saw the ad during a major league baseball game in Seattle - what could that mean?!? Good grief - get a life!!
I love Fist Bump Fireworks
You're crazy! Fist Bump Fireworks rock!!
FCC comment page
I think this must be the right page here:

Where's the form?
The link to the fcc-form just returns to the FreePress main page. When you get it fixed send a new email with correction noted in the subject line.
Market-driven?
To me, the concept of a purely "market-driven" Internet which excludes Federal government protection (from entities like AT & T, Verizon, Comcast and the like) is a blank check for corporate interests to stifle and control Internet content.

Keep your grubby laws of my Internet
I don't want a government beyond my local government to have ANY control of the Internet. State or federal laws or involvement in infrastructure will only impede upon the organic growth of the technology and will assuredly erode rights as conditions are placed on grants or loans given to companies which actually do the work.
Network Neutrality is a very, very good thing, but it must be market-driven, not written into law.
Visit a computer science department
Their network professors are always looking for better technologies. Regulating the internet is not going to stop the development of new technology. It's too popular in the academic world, it's worth too much money to corperations that are looking for newer ways to exchange data faster, more efficiently, more cheaply, and more securely, and it's just too dog gone fascinating for the CS guys.
Telling corporations they actually have to give the services they claim to offer, need to treat everyone equally, and cant go snooping their clients private business isn't going to stop this.
That's all nice in theory
but you need to learn that that is not how it works in practice. You have "a few" large corperations that control ALL the infrastructure. They are the only offerers, and therefore, there is not sufficient competition for a market system to work correctly. This is no different from the Railroad monopolies at the turn of the century. People like yourself railed all about how regulations limit the growth and yet prices kept going up up and up. Corporate America doesn't understand how market economy's should work.
Furthermore, and start up costs for a telecommunication's company are astronomical, not to mention that there just isnt the physical space for dozens of new competitors to run around laying their own networks! So your "market driven" internet is a really nice theory, but you need the bloody market for it to work!
China in control of USA dissent?
Probably not, but could repressive control of free internet be very far off?
Fight for freedom of speech ant the net!
Didnt work for me either
Links are broken.
Same problem - link not working
June 3, 2009 3:41pm EDT - suggest sending another email blast to let people know it's fixed
yes! please send another
yes! please send another email. everyone seems to be having this problem
Internet Broadband Plan
Michael Lynton says he sees "nothing good having come from the Internet." This is absolute hogwash. Many, many good things come from the Internet, and the best of them come because it's open and free, supporting national conversation and, ultimately, our democracy. Please assure all of us, through this new plan, a FAST Internet (like Japan's, 20 times or more faster than ours), an OPEN Internet (not under corporate or government gateway control, with Net Neutrality), and an AFFORDABLE internet (without runaway and/or split-level corporate pricing unrelated to social reality--affordable by the poorest among us). Make sure consumers have a real voice in the management of the Internet.
You need to re-do this thing...
as others have already said, you can't get to the place to tell the a-holes what we think.
I suggest you put something in the subject line to tell people you've fixed the problem, or they might not bother going back again.
one way street?
could someone get back to me when the bugs are
worked out?
Link is definitely not working!
I tried the same thing...it just takes you round and round. You all need to get this together soon if you want people to respond to the FCC.
I click easy form, and get
I click easy form, and get brought back to the main page of the site. As if I just came from the email?
No I had no problem loading the page but the link to the FCC
That link isn't working to well. I keep getting an errors page.
The form not working...hmmm
both links for following are not working.
page loading issues?
Am I the only one that had to try multiple times to load this article and then again to send my comment to the FCC? Is it just coincidence?
multiple times
No-you're not-I tried several times too & still not sure if it went thru.
Nope, it's lots of people
Nope, it's lots of people hitting the server at once, I'm guessing. Good sign.
