The Entertainment Consumers Association (ECA) are the folks fighting for rights pertaining to computer and video gamers.
Their latest waged battle concerns Internet bandwidth caps, that is, how much data you can download to your computer per month. It is the ECA's position broadband customers aren't in the best interests of their providers, and so they've introduced the Broadband Internet Fairness Act, H.R. 2902, which they're asking the public to get behind with them.
"The internet is the economic and entertainment engine of our time," reads their statement. "We don’t need the telecom companies increasing costs, while offering more bandwidth intensive services.Entertainment Consumers Association (ECA) believes that gamers should be able to play the games they want on the internet. These user caps could limit or stop game play by arbitrarily and artificially limiting bandwidth in the name of network management."
