---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Patrick Bond <[email protected]> Date: Thu, Nov 6, 2014 at 2:00 AM Subject: [Debate-List] (Fwd) Washington's class-apartheid internet proposal leaked: 'slow lanes' + censorship To: DEBATE <[email protected]>, [email protected] The FCC’s Net Neutrality proposal just leaked, and it’s terrible. Four million people spoke out against “slow lanes” and cable company censorship, and the FCC’s rules explicitly open the door for that kind of abuse. From what we’re hearing, they’re finalizing the rules right now. We can still stop this, but we have to act swiftly and show a strong response right away. We need an emergency protest in Washington, DC. Sign up and spread the word! <http://act.demandprogress.org/go/1383?t=1&akid=2753.1627305.1k6WZ9> Here’s the plan: we need to send a strong message to President Obama and the FCC right now that the Internet using public won’t just roll over and let them take our rights away. So, taking some inspiration from mass protests in Hungary that just defeated an unfair Internet Tax there, we’ll gather after dark at the White House and government buildings nationwide and hold up our glowing cell phones, laptops, tablets, to shine light on the corruption unfolding in Washington, DC that threatens our most basic freedoms. Will you join us on Thursday at the White House in Washington, DC? If you can’t make it, can you spread the word? Yes, I'll share or go to the action in Washington, DC on Thursday! <http://act.demandprogress.org/go/1383?t=2&akid=2753.1627305.1k6WZ9> The battle for the net is coming to head. Everything you can do right now matters more than you know. Here are the details for the event, please spread the word: *What: Vigil in front of the White House for the open Internet* *When: November 6th, 6pm EST* *Where : Gather in Lafayette Park, Washington DC (North Front of the White House)* *Bring: your cell phone, laptop, tablet, flashlight or candle to hold aloft in protest!* See you there, Demand Progress -- To view previous posts, create a Google account with your current email and log in using gmail to access the archives. https://accounts.google.com/newaccount?hl=en --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups " [email protected]" group.
