My dead mother submitted a comment in favor of Comcast and against Net Neutrality. Anyone involved in this is trash and should have to experience someone abusing the memory of their dead loved ones.

It's far more likely someone typed a random name into the form that happened to have been your mother's versus obtained a list of dead people and wrote their names - isn't it? There's no identity check for submitting the comment form. It's as simple as lying on the form. > in favor of Comcast and against Net Neutrality Also, let's not make up stories about this issue.

  It’s the truth. Family name is unique in the US. Other than my family, there are no other people with this surname in the SS death rolls. Your behavior is not desirable here. Stop attacking people who don’t share your world view.

    > Family name is unique in the US. No, it is certainly not. The assumption a name is unique is a fallacy. Besides, what did you do - search the millions of public comments for your mother's name on the off chance it was used? And her comment was "in support of Comcast", whatever that means? Using a dead person's name for a public comment is also not a smart way to poison the outcome either. 95% of citizens weren't going to leave a comment anyway - so just use living people's names if for some reason you feel the need to use a real name at all - it would make it at least plausible a real comment was submitted. After all, wow many Frank Smith's do you think exist in Ohio, for instance? There's enough real stuff regarding this issue, we don't need to add fake anecdotes.

      You really need to take a little internet break.

  What do you mean, make up stories? I saw these sorts comments myself. You can still find them.
