'Call your senator today at 202-225-3121 and tell them to support the nomination of Gigi Sohn to the FCC.'

You've probably never heard of Gigi Sohn, but America needs her and we need her now. This is a call to immediate action to restore Net Neutrality and stop a tiny slice of corporate America from spying on us and our lives.

Because these companies stand between you and the internet, they have tremendous power over your online experience. They can choose what websites load fast for you and which take forever. They can track every single site you visit—including how long you're on each site—and record every single keystroke you send or receive over the internet.

Today, this sort of manipulation of your internet experience is perfectly legal. Trump and the GOP saw to that in2017, with help from former Verizon attorney Ajit Pai, who Trump elevated to chairman of the FCC. Right now, about the only way around their spying and speed control is to purchase and install on your computer or phone a Virtual Private Network or VPN, which uses encryption and its own servers to conceal your usage and data from your ISP. But many VPNs also spy on you and—particularly the"free" ones—also sell your information to giant data brokers and advertisers as their basic business model.
