girlfriendluvr:

i just saw a post saying ppl wont be able to talk to their internet friends if net neutrality is repealed and ppl rly need to stop making misinformational posts

bad things that will happen if net neutrality is repealed

• companies will be able to censor information and effectively shut down websites of social movements they disagree with, such as BLM or planned parenthood
• small website owners (such as independent artists who have their own websites for hosting webcomics) will have to pay more to keep those websites hosted
• many controversial and small websites such as i just listed will lose their platforms
• internet monopolies will increase in number and become harder to challenge, such as how youtube has a monopoly on video sharing.

things that will NOT happen

• consumers who don’t own websites having to pay more to access the internet / parts of the internet
• the internet ending
• most of the things in the posts going around tumblr 

here is a post with more information. net neutrality is very important, but please stop spreading alarmist misinformation.
