Take Action

Momentum is building again for one of the most popular internet policies of all time. Today we released two letters to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) demanding they act swiftly to restore net neutrality protections.

The Artists for Net Neutrality letter,¹ organized with our friends at Demand Progress, has been signed by 275+ artists like Alok Vaid-Menon, Amanda Palmer, Cory Doctorow, Deerhoof, DIIV, Eve6, Kimya Dawson, Neil Gaiman, Stephen Fry, and Tom Morello. It highlights the importance of net neutrality for artists and calls on the FCC to restore the net neutrality protections that were repealed by Trump’s FCC chair, Ajit Pai, in 2017. Without these protections, artists know that it’s only a matter of time before telecom corporations begin charging extra fees for online services, or building pay-to-play fast lanes only affordable to companies like Google (YouTube), Amazon (Kindle, Audible, Goodreads), Spotify, and Instagram.²

100 civil society organizations like the ACLU, American Library Association, Electronic Frontier Foundation, Free Press, MediaJustice, MoveOn, PEN America, and Public Knowledge also released a letter³ to the FCC today expressing our support for net neutrality because of a shared interest in equity for the American people. Access to affordable, reliable high-speed internet is critical for modern digital life and participating in the global economy, and the FCC must act quickly to ensure that the internet benefits people over telecom conglomerates.

Will you join these artists and organizations and help us hit our goal of 100K comments to the FCC?
