There were a lot of public figures sliding out of public view on the front page today---John Lasseter, Charlie Rose, Robert Mugabe (finally!). Oh, and guess what else is sliding out of public view these days? Net neutrality. There's a vote scheduled next month to decide whether to keep the Obama-era net neutrality rules in place or chuck them and, you know, trust that giant telecommunications firms will not overcharge/throttle traffic for/fuck with anybody who uses the internet, which is pretty much everybody. I mean, if there's one thing we know from history, it's that companies always do the right thing when left to their own devices.
