Ban Mido and Ginji Amano of the Getbackers from ACW Excel figure out and find out how to pitch in for an important cause. Today, on September 10th, sites across the web will display an alert with a symbolic loading symbol (the proverbial “spinning wheel of death”) and promote a call to action for users to push comments to the FCC, Congress, and the White House. This is the time to go big, visible, and strong - thats the only way we can actually win this fight. We all need to get as many people in our respective audiences motivated to do something. We can make this epic, but only if you help. We need companies to be frontrunners, leaders, and heroes on this, that’s the key ingredient to raising the bar and making sure everyone goes big. We realize its a big ask, but this is the kind of bad internet legislation that comes along (or gets this close to passing) once a decade or so. If it passes well be kicking ourselves for decades—every time a favorite site gets relegated to the slow lane, and every time we have to rework or abandon a project because of the uncertain costs paid prioritization creates. Doing the most we can right now seems like the only rational step. youtu.be/6tLO-3PT-pY
