Save Net Neutrality protest

(image: Fight for the Future)

This week on CounterSpin: Why does it matter to me, a media consumer, internet user, a person concerned with social justice—why does a 2–2 deadlock at the FCC matter to me? What could be happening if Biden's long-languishing nomination of public interest advocate Gigi Sohn ([link removed]) were put through? Net neutrality ([link removed]) , an anti-discrimination law around broadband access that isn't written by corporations? Maybe US citizens could stop paying more for slower broadband than just about every other industrialized country? We won't know unless Democrats stand up to the series of increasingly absurd and offensive smears on Sohn. And that remains to be seen.

Evan Greer tracks technology and its meaning for justice activism as director of Fight for the Future ([link removed]) . She'll help us place the fight around Gigi Sohn's FCC nomination in that keystone public conversation.
