While many websites took part on Internet Slowdown Day to help petition against a recent proposal by the FCC to end net neutrality, another effort was put forth in the form of a catchy song. Appropriately titled the 'Net Neutrality Song,' it also goes by the name, 'Don't Flush Our Rights Down the Toilet.'
This urging is represented by a bunch of people going about their day while sitting on toilets. An elaborate stop motion short film, it brings attention to the need for net neutrality in a way that will really resonate with people. After all, without net neutrality, this viral video might not load properly at all. Thankfully, it has been viewed over 400,000 times so far.
