Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsFCC web page for comments on net neutrality is inoperative.
Not only can you not open the page to Protecting and Promoting the Open Internet option,
every other topic on that site will not respond either.
Which may explain why comments for an open internet are stuck at 45,647
give it a go...does it work for you?

http://www.fcc.gov/comments is the title page, it works fine.
but you have to click on one of the comment titles, on the number to the left of the title, to get the comment page itself to open.
i tried to get any of the numbered comments to open so I could comment.
none of them would.

(144,939 posts)I wonder if the FCC computers or system is overwhelmed with responses and crashed?

(60,010 posts)Being a night owl, I can check when internet traffic is light.
It would be telling if the page remains ded at that hour, I should think.

In other words, if you click the docket number to the left, a page on which you can enter a brief electronic comment opens. However, if you click on the number to the right, which shows the number of comments filed, the system stalls. It does that not just for the Open Internet proceeding, but for all proceedings.
I generally get into the ECFS data base (that's what the FCC electronic filing system is called) through a different route, but its been frozen up for some time on all proceedings.
Not the first time it has happened. Not likely to be the last.
