Our Internet

March 30th, 2014

Our Internet isn’t big corporations doing whatever they want. Our Internet is not DRM, is not SOPA and not PIPA and not the spying on us (and everyone else). Our Internet isn’t bigots taking away human rights from people. Our Internet isn’t hiding behind PR releases.

Our Internet isn’t greed, narcissism, fear and blind hate.

Our Internet is people helping each other be excellent. It’s sharing, caring and being proud of what we humans can do if we only put our will to it. It’s about helping the unprivileged when governments fail. Our Internet is about standing up to your mistakes.

Our Internet is about love and empathy.

The only thing we have is each other.

That is all.
