I'm a little late cluing into this but better late than never. From the page: "The gavel has fallen on the 109th Congress marking the demise of entrenched corporate efforts to legislate away our Internet freedoms -- and a stunning victory for real people who want to retain control of the Internet.
The fate of Net Neutrality has now been passed to what appears to be a more Web-friendly Congress.
Our Coalition pledges to work with new Members to craft policies that ensure all Americans can access the Internet and enjoy the unlimited choices it has to offer.
The end of this Congress -- and death of Sen. Ted Stevens' bad bill -- gives us the chance to have a long overdue public conversation about what the future of the Internet should look like. This will not only include ensuring Net Neutrality, but making the Internet faster, more affordable and accessible." HERE'S ONE WAR WON FOR THE PEOPLE FOLKS. HATS OFF TO THAT.

We won! "We" meaning you and I. You did participate actively in this discussion by expressing your opinion to your congressional representatives, didn't you?
