Net Neutrality & Thanksgiving Podcasts

Hi, everybody! From about half of our team: happy Thanksgiving! Though our devs have been (as always) hard at work, people are traveling for the holidays, so you should check back in next Wednesday for fuller development updates.

We know that, especially for American audiences, net neutrality has surged to the forefront of political discussions this week. As such, in lieu of a longer, more features-centered blog post this week, we’re highlighting five podcast episodes that we think are informative, entertaining, and offer a multitude of perspectives for anyone looking to understand the issue:
