NY’s AG: Millions of fake comments – in favor and against – came from a secret broadband-funded campaign or from a 19-year-old’s fake identities.
Broadband providers and a 19-year-old college student were among those who successfully hijacked public comments during a crucial decision-making process in 2017 to overturn net neutrality by flooding the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) with fraudulent comments indicating their position on the move, according to a new report.
A secret campaign by the broadband industry to offer support to roll back net neutrality resulted in fake comments comprising more than 40 percent of those sent to the FCC during the public comments phase of its decision, according to the report by the New York State Office of the Attorney General.
In Short
The Situation: The Federal Communications
Commission ( FCC ) under President Biden is likely to
revive Obama-era net neutrality rules repealed by President
Trump s FCC.
The Issue: Net neutrality raises First
Amendment questions that have yet to be addressed by the Supreme
Court, although in 2017, then-D.C. Circuit Judge Kavanaugh
concluded that the Obama-era net neutrality rules violated the
First Amendment.
Looking Ahead: The First Amendment is likely to
play a key role in any proceeding to revisit the FCC s net
neutrality rules and in any subsequent litigation.

WASHINGTON, D.C. – TechFreedom [has] filed an
amicus brief urging the Ninth Circuit to reverse an order allowing California’s new net neutrality law to go into effect.
In its 2018
Restoring Internet Freedom order, the FCC rolled back its 2015 net neutrality order, and returned Broadband Internet Access Service to being a lightly regulated “information service” under Title I of the Communications Act. Soon thereafter, California passed a net neutrality law of its own, one that in some ways matches the FCC’s 2015 Order. Earlier this year, a federal trial court rejected a group of broadband providers’ argument that the California law is preempted by the FCC’s 2018 order.
