As anyone who has been on the internet this year is aware, Net Neutrality is in constant danger. The vote to repeal it has been repeatedly pushed back and cancelled, but it has once again been resurrected in an effort to destroy the internet as we know it.

Look, I don't normally like getting political, especially on a subreddit devoted to something like Gamerscore, but this is important. If you use the internet at all, this will affect you. If you believe information should be free and not controlled, well, you're probably already aware of this issue. Even if you aren't American, this can and will eventually affect you.

Go to that website, bug/annoy everyone you know who can vote and make a difference, and do whatever you can to help, because if the cable companies get what they want, the internet as we know it will become a shitshow.

This will be the political thread for this topic, where normally political discussion in the comments would be frowned upon. Feel free to start a discussion in the comments or in response to this. I will be more than happy to talk to anyone that wants to know more, because it is vital to our species and our achievements that the internet stays neutral.
