How they're framing Net Neutrality
I had this message on my machine waiting for me when I got home today. I only caught the last part of it, but the options were repeated several times so I got them down. To paraphrase the message: expansion/updating the internet will be expensive & who should pay for it? "Press 1 if you think the big online companies should pay more. Press 2 if consumers like yourself should have to pay."

They are so helpful, they gave me their name, address & phone number. I couldn't find anything about them on the net, though, but then I'm a net :dunce: . Here tis for you net wizards:
