We used to have guaranteed rights to free and unbiased information in this country. Will we still have those, or are you going to roll over and play dead and give away more of our freedoms to special interest groups and corporations who want to control everything Americans read, hear and see...which is all nothing but propaganda to advance their causes? ********** [110013:092706] N.M., Houston, TX Please support the Net Neutrality Act of 2006. Witout it, censorship will prevail. Our freedoms of speech will be trashed, like those in China. Support the Constitution- it is what you swore to uphold! ********** [010621:092706] p.m., Ronkonkoma, NY "Network Neutrality Act of 2006" [H.R. 5273] to address this issue headon. Please tell your members of Congress to support the Markey amendments and to co-sponsor H.R. 5273. ********** [000711:092706] D.T., Boscobel, WI We need to keep the monopoly of big corporations out of the internet. ********** [002529:092106] E.F., Far Rockaway, NY The internet is a place where people have the freedom to express theirselves and help draw business. I am very upset that China doesn't have the freedom to use the internet. i support Markey! ********** [180329:092006] D.Z., Bakersfield, CA Dear representatives, Please vote to ensure "net neutrality". I don't want a commercial entity deciding for me what I can or cannot access on the internet, and these commercial concerns should not be given this sort of control in any case. Please do the responsible thing for America and vote to ensure the democracy of a fast and reliable internet. ********** [135035:092006] J.L., Mustang, OK There are so few avenues anymore for free access to information and free expression, and the internet is one of the last bastions of true freedom and equal educational access to everyone. It must be not curtailed to satisfy the greed of corporate giants who are never satisfied with their already disproportionate wealth. Stop the impending internet takeover before it stops the first ammendment. ********** [204625:080806] T.B., Cleveland, OH Looks like each day we are turning into Nazi Germany. Shame of the USA. ********** [022239:080106] a.y., Tucson, AZ SUPPORT NET NEUTRALITY. YES ON COPE AMMENDMENT. ALWAYS SUPPORT NET NEUTRALITY. ********** [122411:073106] B.K., Dallas, TX Please co-sponsor H.R. 5273 The Network Neutrality Act of 2006, and support the Markey COPE amendment. This will ensure that everyone will continue to receive fair and equal treatment on the Internet. ********** [100326:072906] G.R., Henderson, NV You want to anger ever Hacker in the world be my guest. But let it be known me and my constituants will not follow any internet law you pass. We will create programs to get around any barrier you create to democracy. We don't put up with it in China or North korea so I don't know what you people are thinking. ********** [231418:072806] J.S., Saint Charles, MO It is time for we Americans to take back our country from the Federal Government Dictators. We are watching very closely regardless of what party those that vote against the betterment of Americas. Watch out how you vote, selfserving career politicians won't be around after the next election. Keep your eyes on what you were elected to do or you will soon be looking for a new career soon. ********** [164541:072606] J.C., Houston, TX IMPEACH the bu$h/cheney USURPATION NOW ! Then have REAL INVESTIGATIONS into EVERY ILLEGALITY the usurpation and or EVERY member of the government and or war profiteers have been involved in including the planning, execution, and cover-up of the events of 9/11/01 ! ********** [230233:072206] j.B., Hurleyville, NY Let thought and access to information be free and unrestricted. ********** [171454:071606] D.V., Clifton Park, NY The internet is one of the few options the people in this country have of getting HONEST news in real time. A vote against Net Neutrality is yet another vote for the big corporations who already control so much of our media. ********** [154825:071606] J.L., Mustang, OK The internet must not be turned into a cash cow for selective corporate interests, or an anti-privacy machine for those forces seeking to moniter and/or to further limit our freedom of thought, learning and personal empowerment. All efforts in these directions must be opposed with the greatest human solidarity. I believe that movement in the wrong direction has so far been encouraged by the lack of straightforward information in these regards. But now that we know, we must now stand together as a conscientious body of intelligent consumers to oppose any such changes. Thank you for your attention. ********** [021705:071606] D.P., Santa Rosa, CA I am fully opposed to opressive efforts of policing the internet. Freedom of use of the internet has been absolutely important to me. My voice is vitally defending freedom from control of the use of the internet. ********** [101038:071506] S.B., Whitefis, MT As if it isn't bad enough that our precious civil liberties have been whittled away to nearly nothing in the past almost five years, please don't now also take away the independence of the last bastion of freedom left to Americans. Please preserve internet freedom. Thank you. ********** [100956:071506] S.B., Whitefis, MT As if it isn't bad enough that our precious civil liberties have been whittled away to nearly nothing in the past almost five years, please don't now also take away the independence of the last bastion of freedom left to Americans. Please preserve internet freedom. Thank you. ********** [085936:071506] J.F., El Paso, TX Our government was not established to control us or protect us from ourselves. The internet is one of the nations greatest form of free speach. Only there can you speak your mind and never be punished for your thoughts. Censorship would be a violation of our first ammendment. ********** [083230:071506] S.B., Lake Saint Louis, MO Do not stop our FREEDOM!!!!!!!We will revolt since the Republican party is attacking us and taking away our FREEDOM , WE MUST!!!! ********** [211843:071406] s.c., Brookings, OR No slow lane for some sites, keep the internet free and open. For me, all of the internet is SLOW, I hope someday broadband will be available and affordable. I don't want my favorite sites stuck in the slow lane or censored by GREEDY business interests. ********** [195232:071406] R.S., Round Lake, IL The internet is the last bastion of freedom. It is only place I can get information not dictated by the fascist reliqious right wing and the neo-cons. Television and news are too afraid of Bush to bring him to task. Keep the internet independent and free from the hands of the right wing communications companies and like corporations. ********** [191142:062506] D.B., Miami, FL Enough lives have been wasted in Iraq. It is time to get out. This is another Viet Nam! **********
