Well the European Parliament has voted to keep Net neutrality, see

Net neutrality in the UK and Europe: What does the new legislation mean for you? - Gadgets and Tech - Life & Style - The Independent

It's now going through a process of being ratified by the member states and if they all agree it will become law. (telecoms companies are lobbying against, but hopefully it will go through.

So are we seeing the start of a two-tier internet, with Americans experiencing a different net from Europeans?

Okay, now that I actually know what's going on right now, I'm angry.

Like, literally upset.

I want to do something about this, but I don't know what to do.

Access to the collective consciousness of humanity is too dangerous for a tiny elite that wants to keep everyone in the dark.

We all know where this is headed. :/

Maybe I'm being melodramatic, but fuck.
