Net Neutrality Protest At Industry Lobbying Headquarters
On Wednesday, November 12 at noon, net neutrality activists protested at the National Cable and Telecommunications Association located at 25 Massachusetts Ave., NW in Washington, DC.
The picket, organized by Popular Resistance, highlighted the national consensus favoring reclassifying the Internet as a common carrier under Title II so that there can be no discrimination and equal access for all with real net neutrality rules.
The largest opposition to reclassification and net neutrality comes from a handful of corporations that are members of NCTA. In order to push their agenda the NCTA is putting out false information, creating fake grassroots groups, threatening lawsuits and spending millions of dollars to "buy" Congress and non-profits such as the NAACP.
