Bollywood roots for #NetNeutrality
The Internet appears to be in danger in India as telecom operators have asked Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) to allow them to block apps and websites and charge money from both consumers and businesses to the detriment of users. Several celebrities took to Twitter to protest against it:
Gul Panag: Our socio economic divide maynot be bridged easily. But the digital divide, to a large extent, is being bridged- IFF #NetNeutrality remains.
Sona Mohapatra: Wah Airtell! Wah all other telcos waiting to get into this ransom game!! I thought u only bullied & stole from music makers. This govt,1 that prides itself in its innovative use of the internet needs 2 take a tough stand with the telcos!
Riteish Deshmukh: #NetNeutrality is as important as Freedom of Speech. Our Basic Right. TRAI TRAI till we succeed.
Richa Chadha: We live in a unique country, where the government wants to make it easier for us to be looted EVERYDAY.
Anubhav Sinha: Talk to friends and people and make them aware about #NetNeutrality . Trust me you will be surprised how most are unaware.
Sarah-Jane Dias: It took me less than a minute to help #SaveTheInternet YOU SHOULD SPEAK UP TOO!
