Net Neutrality
Thank to the ever political VTGirl for telling me what I need to know. It seems that the most amazing part of the internet is under attack. In a world of highly controlled media, the internet is an amazing forum of freedom. It seems that business is attacking that freedom. In an effort to create more revenue, ISP have the ability to block access to sites in an effort to push users to whom ever is paying them the most money. The whole world got mad at Google for doing something very similar to this with google.cn. I guess I should not be surprised that my country is creating a very similar scenario motivated by dollars rather than historical revision. This YouTube outlines it well:
I think it is time for me to contact some senators and representatives to tell them to support Net Neutrality.

Woo hoo! This is my first track back. Thanks!
You are welcome. The track back is such a nice alternative to outright plagiarism.
