Why Net Neutrality is a Union Issue

I don't know if anyone has picked up on these news stories about the struggle between the Telecommunication Workers Union (TWU) in Canada and the Telus Corporation. It may be old news for some of you but it just made my radar. There is an article from labour.net and a slightly longer one from the OpenNet Initative.

I don't know if there have been other examples of censoring unions by Internet providers in the U.S. but I'd be interested in learning about them if there were. The more things change, the more they stay the same.
