The title and the article are missing "United States" somewhere.

  Speaking as a non-American, this is partially-valid point, and a very frustrating one. While the only people who can affect the decision are Americans (members of congress won't, and fundamentally shouldn't listen to calls and emails sent by foreign nationals), this is an issue that affects much of the internet-using world by virtue of such a large volume of international internet traffic going through lines on US soil. In this case, it would make sense for there to be a framework whereby international citizens can provide input, but I doubt there's a way to do this without setting a precedent which could seriously compromise the integrity of their federal decision-making bodies (any further).
