Here it comes again

Maybe Verizon won't bark at this, but you can bet the MSOs will.

We'll have to wait and see how the hearing on traffic shaping goes for Comcast to see how well this bodes going forward.

It won't become a net neutrality issue because providers aren't willing to open Pandora's Box. However, content providers continuing down this path may invigorate bill-by-the-byte and/or setting caps and billing for overages...effectively restricting their "competition" by not having to worry about net neutrality issues.

Yeah... That is the Verizon that got the customer base and now wants to exploit it vs. the Verizon that is going to bait the customer base before it exploits it. Go FiOS!!

They keep resetting the port I open for my sling box. I think they know what they are doing when this happens. Think of it as the poor man's traffic shaping. Kinda thinking of streaming to a PC 24/7 just to get their goat.
