Access Denied.....Suckers!


Save the Internet: Click here


Save the internet?!!! Okay, what are the hippy tree-huggers up to now? Well, truth be told, it's what the big telecom corporations are up to that's really freakin' me out, man. Just this past week, the House of Congress voted in favor of the big telecom corporations, which are doing their big money best to re-route the internet superhighway in their favor. Big-time tollbooths and roadblocks are currently under construction, which will prohibit you from surfing where you wanna surf, without the approval of the big guys like AT&T, Verizon and Comcast.

If they have their way, with the new legislation in the works, they can pretty much control where you click, giving favor to the sites that pony up the dough. You wanna go to Google? Well, maybe your ISP provider wants you to go to theirfavoritesearchenginecausetheypaythemlotsofmoney.com instead. So, they purposely either block, or slow down access to Google. Nice, huh!

Thanks to a grassroots operation known as Save The Internet.com millions of decent law-abiding websurfers are banding together to fight back. If you love your internet access, and you cringe at the thought of being blacklisted from your favorite websites in favor of redirects to big corporation's favorite websites, then you owe it to yourself to take 5 or 10 minutes of your time to visit this site and learn more....and get involved!

Here's a quick video from their site:






Just think, if net neutrality was defeated, you might not even be allowed to go to their site. Come to think of it, you might even have been blocked from this site! And that REALY pisses me off!

What are we living in, Red China? Who would have ever thought that this would happen in a million years? I mean, the Internet is one of the biggest outlets of free speech these days.

If my senator ever voted for this, he'd never get my support again.

All the more reason to visit that site savetheinternet.com and send a letter to your local senators. They need to hear from us all, since they're obviously already hearing from the big money lobbyists.....grrrrr!!!
