You need to understand the FCC have chosen to gather these comments instead of holding hearings. Then the NY AG have asked, repeatedly what's up with those using the stolen identities of NY residents. He also asked the FCC to postpone the ruling until his investigation into this is done. Once again, the emphasis was on identity theft not Net Neutrality. Schneiderman argued for Net Neutrality in interviews but not in legal documents (up until December, I haven't read the current suit yet). He knows what's he's doing. He doesn't have much of a standing Net Neutrality wise but he certainly does in identify theft and breaking the law describing the federal rulemaking process. Roughly it'll go down like this "Your Honor, this comment was submitted in the name of X.Y. who resides in New York and here's a sworn affidafit she didn't submit it. I have a few thousand more should you want to see them. The FCC was aware of these because I repeatedly drawn their attention to it. They had a duty to take public opinion into consideration and they couldn't because many of the comments were submitted under false identities..."
The FCC have ignored this -- as they ignored everyone else to serve their corporate buddies. They can do that but you need to be an idiot to completely stonewall a state AG. No wonder he came back with more than a few of his buddies. It's going to be oh so funny when this ruling will be thrown out not because Net Neutrality but because they rushed it...

So they're just incompetent? Because if I were trying to serve my corporate buddies, I'd do a satisfactory job of it instead of jeopardizing the whole darned thing.
Of course they are. Have you seen that video that idiot of a chairman put out? It looks like something College Humor would do expect he made it seriously.
