The US won Net Neutrality, now it's time to help fight the EU FCC and WE, in the US or ANYWHERE can participate!

Make sure to scroll down to see the VIDEO explaining what WE, in the US can do to help fight for Net Neutrality with the EU FCC!

I received an email that says we can use this on our blogs, and I want to share this with you! I AM copying and pasting this so you get the correct information instead of me trying to explain this all! I think this is the best move for ALL of us! I just might only end up confusing you!

TUESDAY, JUNE 28th, is the day that is planned for the START to drive hundreds of thousands of comments to the EU's FCC - here is the email that was sent to me from team@fightforthefuture.org! 

This month's court victory was the final milestone. We won. The net neutrality rules we worked so hard for in the US will stand. [1]

But Europe is deciding on the same issue right now, and what they decide will affect the open Internet for everyone else. That's why we're raising the cat signal!

Watch and share this video on why net neutrality matters, and how to win it in Europe—just like we did in the US. Or, since our EU Slowdown Action starts tomorrow, help drive hundreds of thousands of comments from all over the world to EU’s FCC. [2] Click here to submit a comment or join with your site, blog, tumblr, or twitter! I signed up! (It's a form - easy-peasy!)

We won in the US by organizing millions of people to stand up for the open Internet. And, now we have to do the same thing again. The Internet is global, and Europe is the largest economy in the world. How will our favorite sites, news outlets, & apps thrive and grow, if European ISPs can throw them into a slow-lane?

How will we ever challenge the power of tech giants like Google and Facebook, when European ISPs can subsidize them to appear free, while making competing sites cost more than ever?

How will we spread the latest freedom-enhancing tools like VPNs, TOR, p2p video streaming, and blockchain apps, when European ISPs can make them unusably slow for hundreds of millions of people?  

This is a fight we all need to win, wherever we live. And we can do it by raising the cat signal to tell everyone we can, and then submitting our own comment. Can you help now?

If you’d like to learn more, watch and share this video on why net neutrality matters, and how to win it in Europe—just like we did in the US. And if you speak any languages other than English, help translate the video here.

Remember, the most important thing to do is join the action to alert your network AND submit your comment to BEREC—Europe’s version of the FCC. The 3.7 million comments we helped organize were crucial to winning net neutrality in the US. Comments matter tremendously in Europe too, and anyone can submit one, so please click here to submit your comment to BEREC right now.

Finally, if you live in Europe and could spend 5-10 hours per week or more volunteering until the July 18th deadline, that could be really helpful. Email me at holmes@fightforthefuture.org.

Thanks for everything you do!

Sincerely,

Holmes, Tiffiniy, Lizzy, Donny, Jeff, our designer Vasjen (who’s in bed with broken ribs right now, poor guy!) and the whole Fight for the Future team.
