If you have seen my other posts on net neutrality, you know I am a very big supporter of a free and open Internet for all. It sickens me that lobbyist has corrupted our government and allows Internet Service Providers to charge for the same bandwidth, many times over or to act as a censor on what media we can or should consume by using artificial speed limits on non-sponsored media sources.

If you are not in the USA, you likely have a choice on what Internet Service provider you choose and have better speed for far less than we do. You also not likely forced to purchase 300 useless channels in a TV bundle to get the 1-2 you want to watch.

The ad company behind the fantastic Anti-Bullying Ad created a new ad focused on Net Neutrality. I highly recommend you also check out the Anti-Bullying Ad as it is an equally large problem in the United States currently.

If you are not familiar with Net Neutrality, shame on you. Get familiar! This affects everyone, and will not be limited to just United States citizens.

Burger King chose one of their restaurants to perform an act of protest and raise awareness for Net Neutrality. Not only is it entertaining, it is a powerful message. I really hope it gets aired during the Superbowl to amplify the message.

“We believe the internet should be like Burger King restaurants, a place that doesn’t prioritize and welcomes everyone,” says Fernando Machado, Burger King’s global chief marketing officer. “That is why we created this experiment, to call attention to the potential effects of net neutrality.”
