It was standing room only at South High in Minneapolis as more than 750 people turned out to show their support for Net Neutrality and free speech online. From librarians to IT specialists to local journalists, dozens of people lined up behind the microphone to express their concern about the future of the Internet. FCC Commissioners Michael Copps and Mignon Clyburn listened to hours of impassioned public testimony.
