On the same URL:
>Is Bell Internet DSL access shared?
>No. Your Internet access is not shared with any other Bell Internet customer.
:
>Is Bell allowed to do this?
>Bell has a responsibility to maximize the ability for all customers to use and enjoy their Bell Internet service and a responsibility to deliver bandwidth fairly to its customers.
If DSL is not shared, then how the heck do you "maximize the ability for all customers to use and enjoy their Bell Internet service" by throttling?
P.S. For the humour impaired, that's a statement, not a question. |

What I find surprising is that they testify it's been up since october 2007 when they've negated it in the past. This webpage appears today when there's already a class action in Québec against them for throttling in that period of time! This is some serious kind of evidence against Bell.. I'm printing the page in pdf and follow it to that law office right now in case they haven't got it or Bell decides to change it! lol |

WRONG
if your using p2p applications in any way that is public the 1st poster is corrent
if you encrypt your traffic and DO not during the traffic shape time do any public non encrypted traffic, you can or may not be traffic shaped because otherwise if encrypted they cannot know what your up too and thus discriminate less. Most SSL is business at least for now, and BHELL dont need them to start also whining.
hten when everyone is using encrypted traffic the next phase of the evil empire begins.....tune in next month for the NEW IMPROVED BILL C61 , brought to you by your CONserv.a.republican friends |
