HOLY CRAP! http://ipower.ning.com/netneutrality2

Update: Bell Canada and TELUS (formerly owned by Verizon) employees officially confirm that by 2012 ISP's all over the globe will reduce Internet access to a TV-like subscription model, only offering access to a small standard amount of commercial sites and require extra fees for every other site you visit. These 'other' sites would then lose all their exposure and eventually shut down, resulting in what could be seen as the end of the Internet.

Dylan Pattyn *, who is currently writing an article for Time Magazine on the issue, has official confirmation from sources within Bell Canada and is interviewing a marketing representative from TELUS who confirms the story and states that TELUS has already started blocking all websites that aren't in the subscription package for mobile Internet access. They could not confirm whether it would happen in 2012 because both stated it may actually happen sooner (as early as 2010). Interviews with these sources, more confirmation from other sources and more in-depth information on the issue is set to be published in Time Magazine soon.
What can we do?

The reason why we're releasing this information is because we believe we can stop it. More awareness means more mainstream media shedding light on it, more political interest and more pressure on the ISP's to keep the Internet an open free space. We started this social network as a platform for Internet activism where we can join forces, share ideas and organize any form of protest that may have an impact. If we want to make a difference in this, we have to join together and stand united as one powerful voice against it.

Join the movement.

Suddenly, all the ISPs are going to stop and make people pay, resulting in losses of millions? This is the beginning of a classic urban myth. Stay tuned.

That's my take on it as well.

The article brings you up to speed on other issues facing us. Fascinating read. I know my son uses Comcast and he tried bit-torrent to get me a movie. Man, it took a long time. I'm talking months. I don't know if Comcast was slowing it like the article claims, though.

Net Neutrality is a serious issue we may have to fight in the upcoming years. I can't even imagine using the internet like I would TV. Honestly, if ISP's actually pull this crap off, I plan on boycotting internet service all together until they bring the old service back, or at least make it fair for startup companies, small fan sites, or personal blogs to have the same rights on the internet. The internet has done so much for us in the last few years, and we've been here to watch it grow and evolve with great new ideas.

Think of it this way...if ISP's started doing this from the beginning, we wouldn't have eBay or craigslist. There would be no fun projects like One Red Paperclip...No Google! I don't mean these sites would be different now, I mean that wouldn't exist at all.

Don't let your ISP tell you what you can and can't do with your internet! They may own the pipes, but WE made the internet.
