Demonstrators spoke out at a rally for Net Neutrality in Palo Alto on Dec 7. The Raging Grannies handed off a bullhorn in front of the downtown Verizon, and a mic connected to a portable amp in Lytton Plaza across the street, where the Grannies began the rally in front of the Digital DNA sculpture. Artist Adriana Varella's artwork has been censored by the Palo Alto Public Art Commission who voted for deaccession of the piece in kangaroo court fashion.
One of the Raging Grannies, shared this news: As the Federal Communications Commission's chair says a vote is imminent that will dismantle the Obama era plan for enacting net neutrality, India’s telecommunications regulator is moving in the opposite direction. India is set to have the most comprehensive net neutrality plan in the world.
Impromptu speakers from Eastern Europe and S.E. Asia commented that the countries they came from lacked freedom of speech, which is why they wanted to come to the U.S. They said that today's U.S. under Trump is looking very scary...too much like the countries they left.
