| What's to stop them from blocking FTP? I use FTP to UPLOAD files? What's to stop them from blocking that too? What about if I use IRC? I send files over IRC? They could block that too.
Comcast is a bunch of thieves. They 'claim' to be doing it to 'protect' their network, but the reality is they are doing it to CONTROL you.
We PAID for an INTERNET CONNECTION. We DIDN'T SIGN UP FOR AOL. We EXPECT to get an INTERNET CONNECTION. That means, I can do WHAT I WANT, WHEN I WANT, WHERE I WANT, with WHOMEVER I WANT. Comcast have a problem with that? The solution is SIMPLE. DON'T SELL WHAT YOU CAN'T PROVIDE. If that means they will charge $500.00 for a 10/1 connection, then so be it. If that means the $60.00 tier is only 1/128, then so be it.
Comcast wants to take your money, and not provide any services. That's how companies make the most money. Provide the LEAST amount of service at the GREATEST price they can. Problem with that, when you are a monopoly, you WILL provide the LEAST Service at the greatest price, because there is no competiton.

Burlington, MA | As a matter of fact, file sharing has been prohibited on their network for quite a while. I think a lot of people have a very distorted view about what they've been promised. They tend to remember only what they want to remember, regardless of whether that memory is complete or even remotely accurate. |
