If any members use comcast, please cancel today!

^ and tell them why

Comcast monopolizes in my area... if I cancel, I lose internet access which I use both for personal and business use. Otherwise, I'd dump them immediately.

Gotta love our free market economy. Right? *sigh*

Heard about this on Buzz Out Loud, Comcast should be ashamed.

Gee...aren't mega corporations great?

You know they have a team of people sitting in a conference room all day thinking up ideas on how to NOT serve the public.

"Hey, why don't we spend some of this money and fill the seats so no dissenting voices have a say?"
"Thats a great idea Johnson! when you get home there will be an extra story on your house."

No really, are these the types of companies we want making decisions for us, in regards to the internet?

Public hearings in rooms with limited seating are obviously out-dated. I don't see any way to prevent people from filling seats like this, except to take the hearing to a different format. A full room should never limit the public voice, even if it were full of people who knew why they were there.

Holy crap, an upvote from billo that didn't make me feel dirty

Go to the source site above (savetheinternet.com) and follow the Contact Congress Now link at the top to notify your representatives what you think of their poor decisions. I just did.

yeah unfortuanlty comcast is the only way in my area, they even sell bandwidth to other isp as well i think

Share WIFI with a neighbor?
I know what you mean, only 'broadband' where my mother is comes from a satellite.

I still think you should cancel...even if you lose the internet. I know that would mean we wouldn't see you on videosift anymore, but we here at the sift are willing to make that sacrifice.

jk

Oooh, now you've done it! Them's fighting words! I'm going to go to upvote all your videos you've ever submitted! You'll be taking showers for weeks to get the dirt off! Muhahaha!

votes is votes

I would love to cancel our 8MB Comcast line.

Except 512k DSL would really suck.
