Let's fight for Net Neutrality before it becomes necessary. E-Mail the TRAI now.

So, the first thing you can do is to e-mail th TRAI on their comments email, which is : [email protected] You probably shouldn't copypasta someone else's email on this as it will lead to them beleiving that a few people are spamming their inbox. Some tooltips on what to write would be:

Some tooltips on what to write would be:

Refer to the recent Net Neutrality agitation, and the subsequent FCC ruling,
Talk about how loss of revenue to Telecos should not be the bar to progress,
Talk about how Net Neutrality laws have already been enacted in The Netherlands after a similar agitation there,
If you want to, talk about how rulings in favour of allowing said regulation are anti-development, and not what you expect from the Government.

What else can I do?

You can tweet the issue out and raise publicity. Since this ruling affects widely used services such as WhatsApp and Skype, more people should be willing to listen.

Dude all this takes too long.

Well, yeah, you can either take 5 minutes now or bitch endlessly later. It's your choice.

@praveenarimbrathod - just browsed through both autistici.org and openmailbox .. first impression was that autistici sounds like they could run out of funds anytime and openmailbox seems reliable in this case .. privacy wise , both look good.. which one would you suggest? .. also , do you think they're reliable enough to use it as my primary email service?

@arjun I use autistici as my primary id, there were a few times they were under DDOS attack. I don't know about openmailbox, I know a friend who uses it. @akshay and @balasankarchelamat also use autistici.

@arkarjun you could make a cartoon like http://theoatmeal.com/blog/net_neutrality

Could take ideas from http://aravindet.svbtle.com/appu-and-the-bus-operators
learnlearn.in/net-neutrality/

Some Mozillians and people in Bangalore are also trying to do things.
