| Comcast is not "forging" anything.
The packets they're sending are commands -- in accordance with the standards -- telling the computers which are engaged in a violation of the networks terms of service to stop.
Using BitTorrent on Comcast's network is a breach of contract, and for good reason. It's taking Comcast's bandwidth for the benefit of third parties. Comcast is 100% within its right to stop the traffic that is in violation. |

| So, you're telling me that I send an e-mail to family that is NOT on Comcast's network, they have a right to block it because it's not benefiting Comcast??
I have to say bullshit to that arguement. If that's the case, there would be no traffic on the connections because nothing that is done on the internet directly benefits Comcast, besides looking at their pathedic webpage and paying the bill online.
So that is a piss-poor excuse and rational for supporting them. Go, collect your Comcast paycheck, and don't spend it all in one place. |
