Re: How "traffic shaping" will negatively impact neuroscience:
Ah, sorry I misunderstood. You're right, that is their mindset. The ISP's TOS might be enough to deter lawsuits from their customers but they are now interfering with voip and other services from companies that charge customers.
Since they are directly impacting the quality of these paid services I think that the companies who are being negatively impacted as a result of throttling have a legitimate case against Bell. What do you think their chances are if they sue Bell & Rogers? |

Re: How "traffic shaping" will negatively impact neuroscience:
I understand the risk from the customer's point of view but if a company such as Vonage starts losing thousands of customers as a direct result of bandwidth throttling, don't they have a case against Bell & Rogers?
They can easily be put out of business since their service will become unusable.
edit: My posts sort of hijack the thread. Can they be moved to the same thread you moved one of your replies to? |
