.... and allowing ANYONE(including their competitors) to send unthrottled data would adversely affect all users on the local infrastructure. IF THEY HAVE to throttle, they are doing it in the right spot where it affects all providers equally.
Monthly usage limits are already in place. Now they are throttling from 4:30PM-2AM down to a few kbps all P2P traffic.

This is once again a Bell attempt to undermine their competition who, using the infrastructure Bell owns, has figured out a way to offer a better product. How can Teksavvy and others do it? They don't have shareholders to please. They can offer a better product for less because their costs and profit margins are slimmer.

As the former Bell's (ergo Verizon) have demonstrated here in the US as well, the days of innovation are gone. AT&T used to be widely respected for their innovation technological prowess, at some point they lost focus on that and instead started focusing on how to nickle and dime their customers, while offering a substandard product that was largely subsidized by taxpayers in the first place.

I am not normally for regulation, but if U-Verse is what we get in a deregulated market, bring on the Feds.
