livestreamToday Wednesday June 19 2019 at 5pm EDT (21:00 UTC) the Internet Society Livestream Channel will webcast What the Loss of Net Neutrality Means for Democracy and Innovation – a panel at Stanford Law School’s Center for Internet and Society on May 30. Stanford Law Professor Barbara van Schewick writes: “In 2017, the FCC voted to abolish net neutrality protections, which ensure that we, not the companies we pay to get online, get to choose what we do online. This event explored what we lost, why it matters, and what’s happening with efforts to restore those protections in the courts, the states and Washington, D.C.” Speakers include Congresswoman Anna Eshoo , FCC Commissioner Jessica Rosenworcel, Reddit CEO Steve Huffman, and Professor van Schewick.
