Did You Know: Internet Edition

This past week, the Federal Communications Commission voted to designate the internet as a public utility. As such, all traffic on the internet will be treated equally, regardless of the type of data, site, application, who the internet user is, or what type of platform is being utilized. To celebrate the history and power of the internet, we created this infographic. For further specifics on the facts, please see the links below.
