The form creates a query with your name and a bunch of other search terms:
filers.name:(${YOUR_NAME_HERE}) AND ("Chairman Pai" OR "Mr Pai") AND (", " OR ": ") OR "") AND "I" AND ("would like to comment on" OR "have concerns about" OR "am a voter worried about" OR "concerned about") AND ("net neutrality" OR "Network Neutrality" OR "Internet regulation" OR "the FCC rules on the Internet") AND "I" AND ("urge" OR "encourage" OR "ask" OR "recommend" OR "request" OR "advocate") AND ("the commission" OR "the commissioners" OR "Ajit Pai" OR "government") AND "to" AND ("reverse" OR "repeal" OR "undo")) OR "The unprecedented regulatory power")

So no, it's not an exact-match on the whole comment, but the conjunction of a bunch of exact-matches on phrases. Each phrase by itself could match a lot of pro-neutrality comments too, but presumably the whole collection of them are taken from a sample of sock-puppet anti-neutrality comments.

(In case the parentheses in the above don't match up, I just copied the URL and manually replaced %20 with a space, while not wearing glasses, so there may be clerical errors.)
