This is what the world looks like without net neutrality

Yesterday people gathered at over 700 Verizon locations nationwide to protest against ending net neutrality. I went to my local Verizon store to meet up with a group of people. It was pretty cold out so we weren't out for very long, maybe an hour. I didn't make a sign at home because I was told they were making signs there, but when I got there, a couple was leaving so they gave their signs to my friend and I. My sign read "Do you want Verizon and Comcast to control what you read on the internet? Honk for NO!" My friend's sign read "Net neutrality = democracy". I took a quick video of the other side of the road where some of the people were standing, and at the end we got a group photo in.
Do you want Verizon and Comcast to control what you read on the internet?
It's important for people to realize that the vote for net neutrality is coming up on the 14th. Not many people even realize what is happening, or know what net neutrality is. People need to become active in this issue or our internet will never be the same, and I highly doubt we'll ever get net neutrality back.
Here is a group photo from the protest I went to last night
I shot a quick video too (not the greatest quality, sorry!)
