Many major American websites will be having a day of protest on Wednesday by deliberately slowing down their sites and having messages about net neutrality appearing.

Other well known sites taking part are Kickstarter, Vimeo, AdBlock, change.org, Dropbox, Greenpeace & Spotify.

Although Amazon.com is taking part, I don't know if Amazon.co.uk is.
