Blocking traffic might block legitimate traffic then someone could sue. I see that coming. Charging websites is ridiculous since bandwidth is already paid. Google doesn't use much bandwidth anyway. YouTube does but not Google search--cleanest search on the Net compared to Yahoo's bloated website.
Hope Microsoft makes Yahoo peeps richer--other than an OS for desktops, what do I need M$ for? And, Vista can be shoved right up Ballmer's a@@. I'd rather have Windows 95 that Vista. Only ME was worse. Linux servers are the best anyway.
If VZ can spend billions on FIOS, everyone else can upgrade their networks. Wonder when AT&T's UVerse is called a failure what their shareholders will say? Fire the management. Cox has caps but I violate them every month by double and never hear a word. Why? They built a big network here. However, they can cut you off for Kazaa and Bittorent illegal downloads and uploads however (called "misusing the network").
Your comments always get a laugh out of me. LOL, esp. the part about someone suing for throttled internet. And if Verizon wants to spend billions in the RED they can, but why should other companies go bankrupt. I think u have some good points but i dout u actally run a Linux server for a living. I run both MS and Linux servers (12 all together). They both work great for there respected duties. So, to just say Linux is better, makes you seem ignorant. Yes Linux servers are better at certain things but not all.
