saturday, 17 may, 2014: a latin american response to the dismantling of net neutrality, i.: give us This Day our Daily Curse

SPANISH: ¡Joda / Chinga a aquellos fascistas avaros en verizon! Nuestros impuestos pagados para la construcción de la internet, no lo hicieron. Hacerles pagar el gobierno 30 trillones de dólares al año si quieren reglas especiales de internet.‡

‡ )  “Fuck those avaricious fascists at Verizon! Our taxes paid for building the internet, they didn't. Make them pay the government Thirty trillion dollars a year if they want special internet rules...”  NOTE: “Chinga” is primarilly used in Mexico, whereas “Joda” tends to be used in the rest of Latin America. Spanish speakers will, however, understand either word ;

SPECIAL NOTE: Verizon & Comcast are trying to turn the internet into their own private electronic hwy., & want every one to pay more to get much less. & any businesses or organizations, whether nonprofit or not, will have to pay them a fortune for having high-speed internet service. & any businesses they own, will get premium acess.   If you have any online business, & are not a multi-million-dollar entity, then you will be royally screwed, if not driven out of business altogether. This is such a bad idea that even Amazon is against it, Google is against it, several major internet companies are against it, several senators are against it... But Verizon & Comcast have bought 3 of the 5 FCC commissioners, who are seriously considering giving them the keys to a public trust. Call the White House at 202-456-1414 to let them know how you feel, & demand the resignation of those 3 FCC commissioners, & contact the Justice Dept. to investigate whether they were bribed, & contact yr senators & congress peoples on this issue to let them know you are paying attention to what they intend to do about this.
