Major website have joined together for “Internet Slowdown Day” today

Internet Slowdown Day is here. While the Internet itself won’t be slowing down, expect to see the dreaded “spinning wheel of death” loading symbol featured prominently on some of your favorite websites, including Netflix, Foursquare, Etsy, and more. The group of websites have banded together into “Team Internet” to protest proposed changes to net neutrality rules, which would allow Internet service providers to charge high traffic websites more or essentially force them to create a “slow lane” for customers.
