[Year 12 IT Apps] Net neutrality - The John Oliver show breaks the FCC website

[Mark]

"Former Daily Show correspondent John Oliver's new HBO comedy news show
Last Week Tonight has been stirring up a lot of buzz lately.

On last Sunday night's episode, Oliver took a page from fellow comedy news
anchor Stephen Colbert's book and initiated a social media movement against
the FCC that ended up crashing their website.

During the epic climax of his 13-minute rant on net neutrality, Oliver
urged internet commenters to "once in your lives, focus your indiscriminate
rage in a useful direction" by posting in the FCC website's comment section
under the title “Protecting and Promoting the Open Internet.” "

*Warning before you show the video to the kiddies - some fruity language.*
