Default Re: Save the 'Net

I just saw a really disturbing commercial on Comedy Central attacking net neutrality. It was so ludicrous I thought it was a joke -- after all, it was during an episode of South Park and they'd had a spoof commercial about "Cherokee Hair Tampons" earlier -- but turns out it's for reals. The National Cable and Telecommunications Association would have you believe that all the "mumbo jumbo" about net neutrality is "nothing more than a scheme by the multibillion-dollar Silicon Valley tech companies to get you, the consumer, to pay more for their services". So now AT&T and Time Warner are the little guy?

You can see the commercial yourself here:
