A Visual Guide to Net Neutrality and its Importance

Very, very nice. Though I still find it funny that you guys are balking at the idea of datacaps. Unlimited data is something we in NZ can only dream of (though obviously prioritised traffic hurts everyone)

Beautiful, simple, to the point. The only thing missing is a "take action" section at the bottom.

There is a 'tweet this website' action at the bottom

A box to type in your zip code and get info about contacting local government representatives might yield actual results.

If "Big ISP's" really wanted to do what this presentation suspects them of wanting to do, they could have done it already. There are much better arguments for net neutrality than this one.

I find it remarkable that people want to involve the government in regulating the internet when there isn't even a problem and yet can see the vast wasteland that is government regulation in other industries. If there's a problem, ok you might want to call for some regulation -- since there isn't one, why waste your time... keep the arguments ready so that if there is one then you can try to solve it.
