Please note that everything below is just what I have understood. Before taking my word for it, please get informed about the situation. I might very well have not understood this correctly. Thanks.

Earlier this week the FCC Chairman announced a plan that would basically remove Net Neutrality, which, from what I know, is the right that lets us see what we want to see, when we want to see it with no possible restrictions. If this plans succeeds, access to certain websites that don't pay fees to Internet Providers could be or slower and, even worse, blocked.

From what I have understood, this won't affect European or Asian countries. Only American countries. But I still wanted to help in some way. The only way to help if you are not from America, from what I know, is to spread awareness around, which is what I'm doing and what I'm asking you to do.

Imagine it this way. If we didn't happen to have Net Neutrality, Skylords Reborn would have never even happened. Without it Hawk, Link, Blank, Kiwi, fiki, Dexirian and the many other staff on Skylords Reborn that we all know and love would probably have never even tried to come together for this cause. Why? Because your internet provider most likely wouldn't let you access this website or would make your access so slow that you would give up trying to access it. Skylords couldn't have happened, because the team wouldn't be able to pay the fees to be accessible.

But it's not only Skylords Reborn. It's every small website or internet corporation out there. One that isn't run by Microsoft, Sony, Valve, Google and the rest of them major companies (Don't get me wrong! It's not the companies' fault!). They wouldn't have informed us about things we might have never known. Also an ordinary person, like most of us, wouldn't be able to post freely on the web and spread his/her ideas and opinions, because of the fees, if it was even possible in the first place.

The internet would not be the internet anymore. It would be like cable TV, where only a few channels thrive. You wouldn't watch whatever you want to see, but what the companies want you to see, whichever website can afford an "accessibility" fee.

It might as well be the same thing for our American friends if the plan gets voted on December the 14th. I believe this is just not right at all. Limiting the flow of information would just limit our horizons. And if it's America first, there's no guarantee we are not next.

Even after reading all this you might think that you don't agree with me, which is fine. For those that agree with me here's what you can do if you are:

• American: Inform your Representatives, your Senator, your Congressman! As the FCC has been ignoring any complaints the people have to express, only the officials can stop them. If you are a minor, inform your parents. Tell them to look it up and take action, if possible. This is no exaggeration. This is a serious situation.
• Other: Raise awareness! Some Americans visit non-American websites daily, or watch non-American youtubers, like how I, for example watch non-European, non-Greek youtubers. They might not know about this and we can help raise awareness for them and people like them.

So that pretty much concludes what I had to say about this. Please don't take everything I say for facts. I might not know what is happening that well. What's for certain is that there are people that know better.

Ask around and get informed! You can google it around and I'll leave a link at the end of this status update with a link to a reddit post with lots of information as well as the official FCC announcement.

Concluding, thanks a lot for your time.
