The commission received more than 21.7 million public comments on net neutrality, an unprecedented amount. But the public record was scrutinized after several analyses concluded millions of fake and fraudulent comments were filed with the FCC.

The agency said more than 7.5 million comments contained the same single sentence in favor of net neutrality: “I am in favor of strong net neutrality under Title II of the Telecommunications Act.”

Those comments alone were associated with 50,508 unique names and mailing addresses, but nearly all of the 7.5 million comments came from 45,000 unique email addresses created by a website that generates fake emails.

More than 440,000 comments in support of net neutrality also came from a single mailing address in Russia. Those comments were filed with the FCC on July 12, the “Day of Action to Save Net Neutrality.”

Thanks for highlighting that paragraph about the Russian Collusion. My liberal Nanny Pelosi slobbering sycophant congressman just tweeted how he got hundreds of constituent calls about net neutrality. I just tweeted back those stats and asked for an investigation of Russian Collusion.

In his typical fashion, it will be ignored.

I guess the Russians don’t want to have to pay to put fake comments on our email websites.
