- ikeboy 7y agoFrom your first link: >Based on this analysis, we estimate that 91% of all anti-net-neutrality submissions, and 79% of all pro-net-neutrality submissions, came from bots. Their survey data is mostly inconsistent with the WSJ data. See https://archive.fo/sp9Q7 https://archive.fo/sp9Q7. WSJ had multiple orders of magnitude higher sample size, so I'd go with their numbers.
