The internet as we know it is at risk because of proposed new EU rules going through end of April. Under the proposed new rules, broadband providers will be legally able to limit the number of websites you can look at, and to tell you whether or not you are allowed to use particular services. It will be dressed up as ‘new consumer options' which people can choose from. People will be offered TV-like packages - with a limited number of options for you to access.

I cannot seem to find clear information about the particular item being voted on, on that website?

This seems to be more of what I am looking for I think... http://www.europarl.europa.eu/oeil/file.jsp?id=5563972

If I can find out what MEP from my constituency has what stance on it I'll make my vote for them reflect that. :)
