FCC Admits in Court That It Can't Track Who Submits Fake Comments
- DannyB2 8y agoOne theory: they don't want to record enough information to track who, because the FCC themselves might be one of the 'whos' submitting fake comments. Another theory: they never were interested in the public's comments, so it never occurred to record enough information to track fake comments.
- anitil 8y agoI think as a culture, people are only just catching up to the idea that fake identities are a problem (Russia/Election/Etc). It wouldn't surprise me if it never occurred to anyone that it could even occur. It's an arms race, and a slow moving organization is always going to be playing catch up.
