Canada’s CRTC gave Bell Canada until yesterday to offer its response to concerns about traffic-throttling practices. That response has now been posted at their website. As you might have been able to predict, the response is essentially that their traffic-shaping practices are in the best interest of their customers and the general public. They cite the statistic that five percent of users were using over 30% of their bandwidth and say that this means that 95% of their users were suffering from the practice of filesharing. Join in discussion of the response over at our forums.
