The F.C.C. Repeals Net Neutrality despite 22 MILLION Americans petitioning for it

In a 3-2 vote today, the Federal Communications Commission repealed the rules known as "Net Neutrality."  At least 22 million Americans signed petitions to keep the rules in place. In yet another Republican-backed handout to large corporations, Internet Service Providers will now be able to charge various websites, and perhaps even blocking popular sites that don't want to pay up.  There will be all kinds of lawsuits over this, but for now the new rules are supposed to go into effect in a couple of months. 

The video above, posted 11/30/2017, gives a quick but good view of the kinds of changes we're likely to see. 

A a small time, but serious blogger, I'm one of the tens of millions of people likely to get seriously reamed by this rule change.  So I'm going to do my best to keep up on this issue, and share what I learn.
