WOW, I just saw a savetheinternet.com commercial on tv! Great work guys, I didn’t even know you were running commercials. It was on CNN.

Well it seems google does have it’s own article(s) on this issue, but they need to be linked from the front page of google.com.

Or maybe better yet, microsoft.com could have pro-net neutrality articles, so could google.com, yahoo.com, etc, etc.

I wish that the net neutrality supporters (such as microsoft, google, etc) would pool some $$$ and start airing commercials of their own.

Over here in Louisiana I’ve seen maybe 1 or 2 commercials but that’s it.

In upstate NY, I have recently noticed some very tough commercials that simply make the blanket statement that Net Neutrality is bad for the consumer. It will cost more money.

It is pretty evil (effective) advertisement that doesn’t even attempt to explain the issue - just that it is bad. Do you have a strategy for combatting this type of argument for the non-technical internet user/voter?

Sounds great. I must say good work to everyone. I’ll be here standing by to contact representatives regarding anything that may come up, I hope others will be too.

As soon as this Congress gavels to a close, we can declare a significant victory in the battle for faster, open and more accessible broadband in the country.

The Stevens bill was a shameless government handout to the telcos, offering little to the public in return. It went down to defeat after a massive public outcry (enabled by this Coalition) in favor of Net Neutrality and against any legislations that failed to protect this principle of a free and open Internet. We stopped this telco-powered, legislative juggernaut and should take a moment to celebrate our successes thus far.

But the phone and cable lobby isn’t rolling over yet. We’ve much left to do in order to: 1. Make Net Neutrality enforceable, 2. Make broadband faster and more accessible to more Americans and 3. Ensure that the Internet remains a revolutionary force for free speech, democratic participation and economic innovation.

Memphis is about feting our successes in 2006 and carrying this momentum forward with a plan for action to make a better Internet in 2007 and beyond.
