Reddit itself has been active with Battle for the Net – in July, the company was one of 232 high-profile participants in the organization's Internet-Wide Day of Action to Save Net Neutrality. Per a press release from Fight for the Future, the day of action led to more than 5 million emails and upwards of 124,000 phone calls to Congress, plus more than 2 million comments to the FCC.
On Tuesday, Reddit stood with its users to reaffirm its commitment to free internet. In a statement posted to Twitter on Tuesday evening, the company wrote: "Net neutrality is just as important to Reddit as it is to redditors, and we will continue to advocate for and work constructively to maintain a free and open Internet."
