Join the Google Petition to keep the Internet free

Everything we do in our business to help people find work, start a business or become more productive using our MYOB courses is made possible because of the Internet. When we provided MYOB training at our Sydney training centres we could only service people living around Parramatta, Chatswood and Brookvale because of the physical location of our centres and the costs were higher because we had to pay rent, good quality trainers, computer equipment, training materials and more.

Today I received an official blog post from Google about a petition they are compiling in support of their “Keep the Internet Free and Open” campaign and I thought this is something that needs to be shared. We’ve seen so many examples of restriction of speech for people in dictatorship type governments and we also know the financial cost of tightening controls on ownership of key business sectors (monopolies usually means strategic power, which means they can set the price they want).

You can do just as I have and participate and show your support by signing the petition. It also gives you the opportunity to write something meaning full… I hope I find my quote appearing somewhere on the Internet soon – it was very inspiring…
