Recent investigations by the Associated Press and the Electronic Frontier Foundation caught Comcast secretly crippling users' ability to share information with one another -- through the BitTorrent, Gnutella, and other applications.
This is a gross violation of Net Neutrality -- the longstanding principle that ensures a free and open Internet. As of this morning, more than 20,000 activists have added their voices to our complaint urging immediate FCC action against the cable giant -- including serious fines.
As you know, the future of the Internet is far more than Web sites and e-mail. People are now using new peer-to-peer technologies to upload and share videos, photographs and music. They are innovating without permission from Internet gatekeepers.
