Re: Give them an inch, they take a mile. Back to my original comment. Save your money, or take it elsewhere. That type of action will be what gets ISPs' attentions the quickest. Whining in a forum or hoping for some inept "net neutrality" law to be passed, won't drive ISPs to change their actions. |

But I gotta say Comcast, while it has its "stories", it's pretty good with not getting in my business. But if they happen to impose this, and there is no ability to turn it off on their site for individual customers ("Opt-out feature"), then I switch. |

I can't take my business elsewhere -- like many, I have only one choice for a broadband connection. |

FCC killed line sharing. Even if I did switch, I could only switch to AT&T since they ripped out the copper in my area and replaced it with Fiber.
When the time comes, then I will decide. But I doubt Comcast would do it. |
