Users of the Internet take for granted their ability to access all Web sites on an equal basis. That could change, however, if Internet service providers started discriminating among content, to make more money or to suppress ideas they do not like. A new “net neutrality” bill has been introduced in the House, which would prohibit this sort of content discrimination. Congress has delayed on this important issue too long and should pass net neutrality legislation now.

Rest of the editorial here.

Can we afford to lose the free internet? No. Is it inevitable? Maybe, but I do think Congress will listen on this one if we speak out.  It should be an issue in the campaign...the implications are enormous...de facto censorship by Charter Cable? I don't think so!
