What are you doing for Net Neutrality Day?

4 points by parametrek ↗ HN
Have you done something clever or creative for Net Neutrality Day? Let's share those here.

Personally I've re-compressed the jpegs on my site at quality level 1 and threw a banner on. It looks terrible!

Hopefully this won't become too much of a self-promotional circle jerk.

I, personally, have not done much. Especially considering I do not maintain any websites, or have access to change our company website. What I have done is spread awareness throughout my circle of friends, and co-workers. Many have never even heard about net neutrality in any sort of way.

I am greatful to everyone who contributes to the fight, in a small way or a big way.

Fight on.

Made a post on FB encouraging, again, my friends to message the FCC. I also checked the FCC website's comment list[1]. Strangely I didn't find my comment, so I submitted a new one. Anyone else have this problem?

Also, does anyone know the engine that the anti-net neutrality users are using? I see copy pasted comments that are anti, so I figure there are similar programs on that side of the isle.

I haven't done anything with my sites or apps, but I called both of my senators (Chuck Grassley and Joni Ernst) to encourage them to support Net Neutrality. I'm also going to write a letter to the editor of my local newspaper, since word on the street says Congress-people pay a great deal of attention to newspapers.

I sent emails to most of my contacts who I knew would follow through with contacting their Senators and Congressmen/women and provided a link to send an email to the FCC. obviously, I also contacted my Senators/Congressmen and contacted the FCC as well.
