The term “no-brainer” refers to a suggestion that is so compelling that it would be foolish to even consider not doing it. I came across a no-brainer recently, thanks to Matt Hobbs: Make all UK Government websites free to access without mobile data charges. When I was done slapping my forehead at how obvious this proposal is, I signed the petition. If you’re a UK resident, you should do the same. And then spread the word. This is the kind of proposal that I imagine any politician would be happy to support, regardless of party affiliation, so don’t be shy about contacting your local MP. I guess in theory this could be opposed on the grounds that it technically violates net neutrality, but I would hope that the obvious societal benefits would outweigh that objection. Like I said, a no-brainer.
