    The Future of the Internet is Being Decided Right Now. Here’s What You Need to Know.

    The FCC passed its proposal (3-2 vote) and the public now has 120 days to comment. The proposal is likely to create a new web, one that allows for the creation of fast lanes and normal (read: slow) lanes, despite Tom Wheeler’s staunch claims to the contrary.

    The commission recognized that the Supreme Court even found the ISPs certainly have the ability to recognize and prioritize certain types of traffic over others.

    Individuals that oppose the proposal, myself included, fear that the new rules will create needless and potentially insurmountable obstacles to innovation and open discussion on the internet. The threat is of creating an internet where normal service works but isn’t as good or being upgraded and maintained like the “fast lane”.

    "A still more glorious dawn awaits
    Not a sunrise, but a galaxy rise
    A morning filled with 400 billion suns
    The rising of the milky way"

    If we do not destroy ourselves
    We will one day venture to the stars" -Carl Sagan
