The Internet is great because it belongs to all of us equally. It's a level
playing field -- whether you want to promote your music, apply for a job,
play a game or start a business. But that could soon change.

The web as we know it today is founded on the principle of *'Net Neutrality*:'
The idea that "content" should be given the same priority no matter who
it's coming from and who it's going to. Policymakers in the U.S. are
currently considering whether or not to adopt rules that protect Net
Neutrality. Millions of people asked them to. Even President Obama (
http://www.whitehouse.gov/net-neutrality).

*Come learn more about your digital rights and what Net Neutrality means
for you – and actions you can take!*

** Speakers **
We will have *speakers from really cool organizations* who can talk about
these issues and their impact.

*MALKIA CYRIL* is founder and director of the Media Action Grassroots
Network (MAG-Net) at the Center for Media Justice. For more than a decade
MAG-Net's 175 member groups have worked together to expand media access and
rights for marginalized communities. http://mag-net.org/
<https://oaklegacymail.oaklandnet.com/exchweb/bin/redir.asp?URL=http://mag-net.org/>

*JEREMY GILLULA* is a staff technologist at the Electronic Frontier
Foundation, where he focuses on privacy and civil liberties issues arising
from new and existing technologies. https://www.eff.org/

** Privacy Workshop **
*Bring your devices, too,* and learn about your privacy options in a
hands-on workshop with volunteers from Sudo Room <https://sudoroom.org/>.

** Maker Party **
Or join us for a maker party where we will craft buttons, posters or zines
inspired by this conversation. We will tweet and post your creations at
#InternetFreedom
