The following is an excerpt from the aforementioned website describing what exactly is happening:

The FCC recently set up a “Notice of Proposed Rulemaking” (NPRM) to solicit public comments on their plan to end net neutrality rules. To file a comment in the NPRM, people have to submit their name and address to a public docket. But, since the comment period began, almost half a million identical and perfectly formatted comments have been submitted to the docket, sometimes even in alphabetical order, in what looks like an automated “cut and copy” fashion, using the names and addresses of people from hijacked lists. People’s names and addresses are being publicly listed alongside a political message, without their permission. The comment text is associated with a non-public petition by a relatively unknown group. Journalists and Internet users are helping to identify dozens of people who did not knowingly sign the petition.
