Sock-Puppet Blog Comments
Seems there's lots of anonymous blog comments going around. [Good article on this.] Especially when the topic is Network Neutrality. Did you know that Issue Dynamics, where the Bells outsource their Astroturf, has a "Blogger Relations" service? Worth reading what they do!
My comment policy has always been:
a) It's my blog.
b) Honest dissent and disagreement is welcome.
c) If it feels slimy, I won't publish it.
I'd like to add a couple of criteria:
d) Real names and email addresses get priority.
e) If you're "anonymous" saying why you chose that option will help.
I'm not going to be an unwitting target for Bell shills. Unless they say transparently who they work for, in which case I'll be happy to talk to them.

David,
Your post is grossly unfair and implies that IDI has had something to do with the fake posting going on around Net Neutrality. We do not.
You should direct readers to our views on that at http://www.bloggerrelations.com/blogger_relations/
