As it noted in its S1, the papers it filed to go public, "the adoption of any laws or regulations that adversely affect the growth, popularity, or use of the internet, including laws governing internet neutrality, could decrease the demand for our products and increase our cost of doing business."
Fight for the Future, an organization behind Net Neutrality Day, says nearly 70,000 people, organizations, online forums, startups, and other groups are participating in the event on Wednesday. The web platforms include Airbnb, Dropbox, Spotify, Google, Facebook, and now Snap Inc.
