Tell the FCC to Unlock The Box!

The Issue

American consumers pay an average of $231 per year to rent a set top box from the cable monopolies. This hurts competition, limits consumer choice, and lifts up cable profits. Cable companies shouldn't be able to block what consumers see on their TV.

By unlocking the box, we’ll make room for new and diverse voices and more streaming content. Consumers should have the power to choose their own device. The technology is ready – the only thing in the way is your cable company.

Join us by signing this petition and asking the FCC and Congress to Unlock the Box.
