Re: Just goes to prove..

Funny thing is that Comcast is starting to use the same ham-fisted, self-serving excuses for "network protection" that AT&T used back in the 70's in an attempt to prevent customers from using customer-owned equipment on "their" lines in competition with that leased by the phone company.

Except this time the equipment is network traffic which competes with Comcast's lucrative add-on program services like video on demand. It is only a matter of time before "reasonable network management" includes throttling outside video streaming to some absurdly low bitrate.

BitTorrent is today's sparkly thing they're using to distract from where the real discussion should be occurring.
