Protests have already sprung up ahead of the Federal Communications Commission's upcoming vote to kill net neutrality laws, as reported by Ars Technica.

Are you ready to do something about it? Keith Rubino and the band New Radio Etiquette are here to you inform you on net neutrality with their parody version of My Chemical Romance's “Teenagers”—watch it below.
