Re: A Joke, Karl?

said by B See Profile :

Surely this is a joke, right? A well researched and well written joke?

ISPs are really going to inflict something like this on their paying customers. I'm sorry. I simply refuse to believe that any organization could be so mind-numbingly greedy and blind to basic human decency. I'm just going to pretend I didn't see this.

And you think any company wouldn't do this based on what exactly ?

Because of isps becoming so large , YES IM LOOKING AT YOU COMCAST, they think they can do what they want with the content. That includes throttling , faking packets and injecting ads.

Interesting to note one ISP a lot of people use ( I won't mention names ) has more ads on some pages I visit from then from work where they provide us just pipes. But yet my friends on Verizon don't see the same added on ads. Yeah it's freaky and disturbing , but I have learned to just use a anon proxy with ssl.
