Lessig is a strong supporter of Network neutrality, and an equally and broadly deployed Internet in general.
He has a long history of supporting digital rights—for example, he helped found Creative Commons which advocates for the expansion of free and creative materials available to all.
Lessig has also served on the boards of the Electronic Frontier Foundation and the Free Software Foundation.
His active interest in defending the Internet stems from his 1997 participation in a major lawsuit against Microsoft for trying to use its Windows monopoly to take over web standards.
