Because those are not youtube comments. Whenever FCC makes a policy change there is a period when citizens can comment on it and express their opinions and concern. To faithfully execute FCC supposed to include these comments in decision, they still could go against it, but they need to address the concerns raised there.
The false comments, basically gave them opportunity to claim that citizens were equally divided and they could just ignore them, when in reality people were overwhelmingly against the changes.
The whole FCC change reminds me of ICANN and .org TLD. Overwhelmingly unpopular to the public but driven by special interests.
