Hello fellow members of Godzilla Wiki! I have a quick announcement,
Im sure you guys (who live in the US) heard about the Net Neutrality battle. For those of you who haven't, here is a quick reminder: Net Neutrality ensures that all those that use the internet remain secret, and the government cannot censor or regulate what you do on the internet. Also, it ensures that companies cannot own or sell internet to customers; business can be made through the internet, not with the internet. However, today, the Internet will be owned by Internet Service Providers (like AT&T, Comcast, Spectrum, Sprint, Verizon, etc.), and all people who use the internet will not only have to pay raised monthly service bills, but will also have to pay for services usually included with internet (for example, in order to post or view videos on Youtube, or other sites, a seperate monthly "videos fee" will have to be paid). Also, the internet will no longer be secret, and everything you do on the internet will be monitered by the US government and by foreign services. Governments can now censor, regulate, track, and even use a person's internet activity to persecute. The purpose of revoking this is to give more government control and to allow the lawmakers and companies who passed this motion to make even more money.
Users in the US may or most likely disconnect their internets due to the situation. Users have also stated that Internet will be much slower and laggier than usual. This will affect Idea Wiki because of the users leaving and no longer being active. This will also affect other wikis.
The fight is not over yet! If you live in the USA, please contact your local representatives and tell them that you demand Net Neutrality. Oh yeah, and BTW, be sure to visit battleforthenet.com for more information and to show your support. Tell the governments that they cannot charge or monitor our expression, our creativity, our freedom. Battle for the net.
