power's Story
A free and neutral internet, being necessary to the freedom of a free state, the right of any person to use the internet without fee. Including but not limited to: blocking or interfering with or discriminate against any lawful internet traffic based on its ownership, source, or destination.
My significant other and I are living with AIDS, sadly my partner no longer is able to move about as freely as before. His survival depends on his ability to communicate with others in his position, the access of most updated research and treatments. It also provides us with much needed fun when things get just too hard to bear. The constant pain is sometimes not so easy to ignore, and the pain medication can only do so much. Please allow the internet to be free to all. The big companies should not be the ones to tell us what sites we may use.
Additionally, should a fee be required, we are on a fixed income, disability, and with that me barely make ends meet. Such a new and unexpected expense would be disastrous to our budget and again deny us the of what should be free.
Please please do not take away a very very important tool in our fight against this bug.
It was our understanding that the airwaves were public domain and no one person or company in charge of what we can do on the internet.
