This article is actually over a year old, but I found it really interesting. Several sites, including handsoff.org and don’tregulate.org (both of which oppose Net Neutrality) are actually funded by a lobbying firm, TSE Enterprises, a lobby whose member oganizations consist almost entirely of telecommunications companies. This explains why there is something very…I don’t know.. empty.. about the sites. The people who run the sites are very anonymous, especially when compared to something like savetheinternet.com.
