This Really is About Freedom, Kids! The US House of Representatives Rejects Net Neutrality Video (5Min). The First Amendment of the Internet --- Net Neutrality, which prevents telecoms from rigging the web so it is easier to visit sites that pay for preferential treatment --- took a blow from the House of Representatives Thursday.
