Net Neutrality Comments Surge Past 1.7M, an All-Time Record For the FCC

Posted by samzenpus on from the speak-your-mind dept.

An anonymous reader writes Following Wednesday's Internet Slowdown campaign, the Federal Communications Commission says it has now received a total of 1,750,435 comments on net neutrality, surpassing the approximately 1.4 million complaints it saw after the exposure of Janet Jackson's breast during Super Bowl XXXVIII in 2004. Wednesday saw citizens submit more than 700,000 new comments to the FCC, and place more than 300,000 calls to the agency.

    The number of corporate dollars will surpass the number of comments. I think the exchange rate of comments to dollars is pretty lopsided. Guess which way it it skews.

    1,750,435 names were added to the No-Fly List today.

    All under the suspicion of plotting to vote incorrectly.

    It is a lot to ignore, isn't it?
