Red alert! For the last six months, EFF, Fight for the Future, ACLU, Woodhull Foundation, and dozens of other groups have been sounding the alarm about several #BadInternetBills that have been put forward in Congress.

This community is for news stories, opinion pieces, and action links about these bad internet bills. Please help get the word out!
