But guess what? There’s something you didn’t know about the vote.
Get this: the vote was basically illegal.
You heard me right. Eric Schneiderman, American lawyer, said in Twitter: “I will sue to stop the FCC’s illegal rollback of #netneutrality. New Yorkers and all Americans deserve a free and open internet.”
Not only do we have another ally, but now we know that the vote wasn’t supposed to happen.
We’ve got this. Now the REAL FIGHT starts now.
And wasn’t suppose to happen because
There was no research committee. Pai pulled “facts” out of his ass and will now have to defend his “evidence” in court.
There was a “voter fraud” in that many of the comments for the repeal was made by stealing people’s online identities. Pai could also be charged with identity theft.
They blatantly ignored the millions of Americans who wanted to save net neutrality and yes the FCC is beholden to the people even if they aren’t elected officials.
There’s a very very good chance Pai and the other three members who voted for the repeal are in the pocket of some of the larger corporations like Verizon and AT&T and could be charged with bribery if the case is dragged out long enough and they’re finances are investigated.
Not just identity theft. Mass fraud, too.
I know for a fact that some of the fraudulent names came from various sources: pro-NN persons, non-existent names, emails that were backtracked to Russia…Gods sakes, even names of the dead were used!
These are felonies. Justice is demanded for these crimes.
For the Net neutrality and for the reasons, we must keep fighting.
Oh that remind me…
For those of you that either question or disbelieve the validity of AG Schneiderman’s claims of this being illegal…I come with proof, straight from the source.
(Long story short: The FCC is about to make a critical decision as to whether or not internet service providers have to treat all traffic equally. If they choose wrong, then the internet where anyone can start a website for any reason at all, the internet that’s been so momentous, funny, weird, and surprising—that internet could cease to exist. Here’s your chance to preserve a beautiful thing.)
