| Who cares
You know what, no one in the scheme of things.
When NORMAL users start to see faster web pages, faster downloads, faster everything then I think this argument about how bad this is will die.
See, no one really cares about P2P, I don't.
Throttle it.
I could go door to door, hit 100 houses, I bet NONE would even know what P2P is. Why? Probably because most people started paying for there downloads a long time ago, like itunes.
I think the ones behind the times are actually the ones on BBR this time! |

| WRONG!
I have gone door to door in this whole section of city and found out 75 out of a 100 are totally p****d off with what most ISP's are doing.
blocked encrypted appz & content
newsgroups blocked/throttled
IRC traffic shaped
many 404 pages
FTP cancelled/reset
content blocked
I diagnosed most of it and found major Canadian ISP's are blocking certain content any way they can. Some ISP's are playing a game of "how much can we skin the customer for"
Just wait till you have only eight button options like ATM machine, AOL or Internet in China ... HAHAHA
Guess some PPL don't know much about big business. Give them a slight edge and they will skin you alive :P |

That's the issue though... this will NOT make a change at all.. The speeds are not usually effected in the areas, as Bell has been always good at keeping Dslams looked after and away from congestion.
I see this as nothing more than kill the small guy and run away keeping customers or bring a few back to them.
P2P isn't just the issue, is the fact it's also effecting other applications like VoIP... which for sure Bell wanted to affect so people get fed up and run back to their over priced, phone service.
Either the Gov or a lawsuit will likely decide this one. |

Thankx for the compliments
Let it go? Not if hell freezes over ... when it's my bread and butter! Maybe you'd like to work, get paid ... but only 30% of your pay shows up on pay day :P |

Re: accusync
Already looking into it since first time teachers pension fund wanted to buy it.
They have ties in USA and other places which are under scrutiny as well. |
