The reason I'm against actually slowing down is because they probably won't bother to geo-target it. Net neutrality isn't a problem where I live, there's nothing I can do to help people in the US, so I don't want my day disrupted. A spinner I'm ok with.

Do you have friends & family in the USA? Please urge them to speak out in support of NN

[k-mcgrady]

Good idea.

Please elaborate. Net neutrality affects the whole web no?

[danudey]

Net neutrality is about ISPs being able to limit or slow other services, or force those services to pay more, for access to their customers. For example, Comcast throttling netflix, forcing Netflix to pay Comcast for unrestricted access to their customers, or forcing their customers to pay more for unrestricted access to Netflix (or some combination of the three).

This is only really an issue with American ISPs, as the US is one of the few (or the only?) jurisdictions where this sort of behaviour is allowed.
