she believes bit-torrent = illegal
And if 90 percent of the content wasn't illegal, I don't think Comcast would be doing this, now would they?

Sure they would.

Separate Justification from Reason and you'll see why.

Let's see...

2/3rds to 3/4ths of Internet traffic is P2P. All P2P protocols use the TCP/IP protocol to transfer files.

Therefore, by your reasoning, it's okay if Comcast bans the TCP/IP protocol since most of what is carried on it is illegal.

It is not whether it is legal or illegal they are doing this because they don't like bittorent since it strains their network. Pirating encourages people to get HSI so why would Comcast want to filter it. Comcast just realized that with bitorrent the law of diminishing returns comes into play.
