Karl doesn't care for Comcast or its subsidiaries.

Shame on him!

How is this anti-Comcast news? Sure, the lawsuit is against Comcast, but the opinion of the plaintiff is obviously negative:

Nobody in their right mind could interpret that as meaning that your connection would never go down, right? Wrong.
If Karl were posting this supporting the guy, he would have said something like "Everyone just assumes that 'always on' means that your connection will never go down, but apparently Comcast doesn't agree."

He doesn't like any ISP. Stories are always about the uber-super fast speeds in a lab or how some one at ISP x screwed something up.

News is news.

Including even if you don't like it.

This is a pretty major claim since "always-on" is a term thrown out with just about everything.

Perhaps... but not sure how "fair and balanced" the news posting is on this site.

If it only were that easy. I've submitted many articles about FIOS deployment and never had any of them published.

I've tried that too. It was comparing all the negativity toward Comcast, while companies like Google go unscrutinized... This was also not deemed newsworthy.

I know Google is the ad source for BBR, so perhaps that wouldn't fly very well.

You would make a good BBR moderator. Need to ensure the anti-corp message stays strong! I think there is something in the BBR TOS which says this and anyone disagreeing with this position will be banned. Or was that AT&T

Most BBR news shows more negative news than positive news (at least against the "evil corporate" machine). But tell me what valid news agency posts more positive news than negative?

I think the article is funny... will cost Comcast loads of lawyer fees and maybe some fine-print adjustment.
