FCC now says there were no cyber attacks during net neutrality comment period - Polidicks

http://www.chicagotribune.com/business/ct-biz-fcc-ddos-net-neutrality-comment-period-20180807-story.html The event that was investigated happened last year, and it was said that a cyberattack brought the system down, not John Oliver's call to arms over NN

Fuckin newpunch, is anyone else getting this Vibrating Pai bug https://gfycat.com/SlushyScaredDungenesscrab

I certainly am I was worried my epilepsy was acting up again.

I can almost hear my voice warbling as I type this.

Getting rid of Net Neutrality intensifies.

Nooooooooo shit?

Wish there was a stipulation in all of our federal positions that states the moment you start denying reality itself, your job is forfeit to the next person who can actually do your fucking job. We really need something to hold each one of these corrupt shitstains accountable.

That would remove over half of Congress and the entire Executive branch Impossible sadly

Sounds like a dream come true in 2018....then I wake up and realize I'm living in a nightmare.

Really forcing politicians to step down if they deny reality is an extremely slippery slope, if anything force social media to put in effort stopping fake news and alt-right crap even if it makes them money. Alt-right memes made Trump and Brexit succeed what a world.

This video is itself also vibrating for me, so I get double Ajit Paibrations

WhAt iS GoInG oN hErE? 😵 I'm not surprised though, looks like most officials from this administration go '[silence] > it didn't happen > it wasn't illegal'.

TL;DR John Oliver's audience overwhelmed the FCC's servers and to avoid admitting that they couldn't keep their servers up under the flood of Net Neutrality supporters they claimed they were DDOSed. Pai's corporate masters would have not appreciated headlines and front-page stories talking about how the FCC website crashed because too many people support Net Neutrality.

So does this just mean the FCC doctored the comments?

They didn't doctor them, they ignored them. They also got someone to run bots using people's stolen identities and addresses to run copy-paste 'anti-net neutrality' posts to combat the flood of positive comments. In other words there were so many pro-NN comments that not only did their website buckle under the strain, not only did they feel the need to get someone to bot their comments to try and at least make it look 'contentious', but it forced them to use their own anti-NN comments as the basis for just completely ignoring public opinion on the matter.

this thread has a cyberattack active

This happens to me with just about everything embedded on facepunch, just not as extreme. I was afraid to ask about it because I've heard people fix it on other sites by resetting your browser.

What the fuck is happening

[PUPPETRY INTENSIFIES]

Feels like I'm holding down F11 but I'm not

>I am deeply disappointed that the FCC’s former Chief Information Officer (CIO), who was hired by the prior Administration and is no longer with the Commission, provided inaccurate information about this incident to me, my office, Congress, and the American people Of course he finds a way to blame the Obama administration

This is something special at 144hz

Can confirm, this bug didn't hit me until right now but it's actually vibrating the entire goddamn page, not just the iframe; it looks like I'm typing double as I write this post. Edit: It actually looks like I'm typing exactly double, with the shake being exactly one line break in size. What causes this issue? Is it text related?

Why on earth is everything shaking? Is the weight of this man's shit causing the entire page to buckle or something?

Cool, now we can move onto the real crime: That fucking bot net of anti-NN comments that used people's stolen identities, including fucking Obama's.

Here comes another FCC Earthquake brbrbrbrbrbrbrbrbrbrbrbrbrbrbrbrbr

It even had people like Adolf Hitler, Stalin, Putin, Obama, English politicians, and millions of dead people, it was really fucked lmao

This definitely seems like the most consistent report of the screen vibrate bug that I can recall.... Wonder what's causing it?

Burn shitheads like Ajit Pai to the fucking ground and purge them from the government.

I honestly don't see there ever being a way back from all of this for America. Citizens United Vs. FEC was the death knell for liberty and fair government in your country. And no matter who's in office from here on out, it's only going to get worse. The supreme court justices who were complicit in the legalization of bribery in the United States will be vilified by history - remembered with no less hatred in the long run than Roger B. Taney for Dred Scott.
