Bell Canada Defends ThrottlingTells CRTC that traffic shaping is in the public interest
12:27PM Wednesday Apr 16 2008 by KathrynVtags: dsl · Fileswapping · business · world · Bell Sympatico · TekSavvy Solutions Inc.Canadas 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.
