The FCC's system for submitting those comments was a hot mess.

Two million of the 22 million comments submitted used stolen identities, some of whom were dead, including actress Patty Duke, who died in 2016. Nearly 8 million comments used email domains associated with FakeMailGenerator.com. About half a million were sent from Russian email addresses. And of the emails that came from legitimate email addresses, the vast majority were form letters originating from the same pro and anti-net neutrality groups.
