This is the latest ad from savetheinternet.com.  It does a pretty good
job of describing the issue in "simple" terms.

The group and the ad advocates making a law to protect net neutrality.
While I am very much in favor of net neutrality, I'm not necessarily in
favor of a law declaring such.  Government involvement in most things is
not a good idea, IMO.

At least someone is out there trying to educate the public and tell the
other side of the debate.
