Game Over- Battle for the Net

We’re going to talk a bit about Net Neutrality today.

While it’s great to have a game to download and play off-line, we mustn’t take for granted its dependency on its source. Let’s ignore the ‘download’ part of the equation. The tools to create Pokemon Reborn, the Reborn League it’s based off of, the simulator it was run on, and the friendships that sparked the Reborn community in the first place all would not exist without free internet. For the sake of Reborn and virtually every other indie game, internet community, online game, or personal website out there, we need to protect the net.

But too often, this ever-vital cause falls by the wayside. We need to continue to call action to the current events threatening the free internet. Check out the video below to see exactly what I mean, and just how easily we can miss it.

Let’s not rush to the Game Over just yet– the battle for the net is just beginning.
