Can We Keep the Internet Free? | Common Dreams

Can We Keep the Internet Free? | Common Dreams:

 "The Internet is no longer just a “virtual” public square—it’s the actual one. We debate critical issues online. We launch social movements with tweets. Independent media sites and citizen journalists have outposts in every part of the Web. Stories break all the time, from a range of sources. Advocacy groups collect data and blast information to their activists. Social media provides news scoops ahead of press releases.

And right now there’s a war on over the future of the Internet."

Cynic that I am, I believe the corporations will win this one just like they won the others (they have the decision makers in their pockets).
