We believe that regardless of who is sending and receiving it, ISPs treating data equally is vital to a healthy, vibrant and open Web. During the Day of Action, we will encourage the Mozilla community to amplify its voice and <a href=\"http:\/\/mzl.la\/nnpetition\">send a clear message to the U.S. Congress<\/a> about what is at stake if net neutrality is weakened.<\/p>\n<p>In advance of the Day of Action, we will also host a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/IAmA\/\">reddit AMA<\/a> to raise awareness and understanding of the issue so people can take informed action. Please join us in the AMA on Tuesday, September 9, from 12-1pm PT by visiting <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/IAmA\/\">https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/IAmA\/<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>This is a critical time in the evolution of the Web. Decisions about net neutrality will determine whether the Web continues to be a powerful, shared resource for innovation, opportunity and learning.
