Save Net Neutrality

From Fight for the Future:

We’re rolling out our plan to stop the FCC’s vote to repeal net neutrality and we need your help.
Today, we announced a *massive online day of action* for December 12th that we’re calling “Break the Internet,” and we need every website, app, and user to help us make it huge.

For December 12th, we’re asking you to get creative and do everything possible to interrupt everyday experience by symbolically “breaking” your site, app, or social media channel. We don’t actually want to break anything. We want to get people’s attention by showing what an Internet broken by censorship, throttling, and new fees would look like; then ask them to call Congress and demand lawmakers stop the FCC’s repeal.

With the day of action coming just 48 hours before the FCC’s December 14th vote, it’s crucial that users from across the country call Congress and demand that they do everything in their power to stop the FCC.

There is huge momentum to save the open web.

Here are the most important things you can do right now:
1 Sign up to ‘Break the Internet’ and hit REPLY to let us know if your site can do more. 
2 Share the protest on Facebook and Twitter. We need to reach as many people as possible. 
3 If you run a website, add a BattleForTheNet widget using this code.
4 Add a banner to your site or social media profile and link to BattleForTheNet.com. 
5 Blog about the December 12th Day of Action.
