Net neutrality D.C. circuit court ruling: The battle’s been lost, but we can win the war.

Net neutrality D.C. circuit court ruling: The battle’s been lost, but we can win the war.: The only people who remain completely committed to network neutrality and energized to defend it are consumer groups and average Americans who love the Internet. On Reddit, Facebook, and Twitter, people are asking how to reverse the decision and preserve Internet freedom. In Washington, though, having the American public on your side might not be enough to stare down the hundreds of telecom and cable lobbyists. That’s where the consumer groups come in.
