Call to Action: Save the Internets

Just when we figure out how these here interwebs work, "The Man" comes along and tries to take it away. At least, that's what proposed legislation would in essence do, allowing telecommunications companies to regulate the internet and favor certain sites over others, unless those sites (Yahoo, for instance) ante up more money for faster traffic. The issue of net neutrality is explained without too much nerdy jargon by Craig (the craig of craigslist) here.
