https://www.politico.com/story/2017/11/20/net-neutrality-repeal-fcc-251824FCC Chairman Ajit Pai will reveal plans to his fellow commissioners on Tuesday to fully dismantle the agency's Obama-era net neutrality regulations, people familiar with the plans said, in a major victory for the telecom industry in the long-running policy debate.
Trump-appointed Pai's plan would scrap the agency's core net neutrality rules, which prohibit internet service providers like Comcast or Verizon from blocking or slowing web traffic or negotiating paid deals with websites for "fast lanes" to consumers. The FCC will vote on the change in December.

Folks,
Take a moment to do something if you're in the USA. We need to voice our opinions. Best way is to go here: http://act.commoncause.org/site/PageServer?pagename=sunlight_advocacy_list_page
Take down the addresses of your representatives and WRITE a letter. It can be typed, whatever, but sign it manually.
Then send it via post to them.
Do it this week so it gets there well before the vote. If you can't take the time, text "resist" to 50409 and follow the instructions. The bot will help you write letter and fax it to your representatives. Please.
