Sandvine now to throttle Mobile Internet!

Throttling solutions are getting hammered now and so Sandvine thinks they can now produce their service engines for mobile internet services.

I've got a better idea for Sandvine! Find a useful product instead of one that takes ISPs back 10 years!

That last line about "business intelligence" is worrisome. Business Intelligence usually implies spying on the competition, or spying for profit. Not too sure you'd want a network provider anywhere near that.

I wonder why they would do this. I have a data plan that is caped and I don't/want to do any torrents on it. What would be the real benefit here for company's to pay for this.

Hm, yeah- I had a relative who was a manager at Verizon who both worked from home and used Comcast Internet- they now use FiOS, but I'm sure there are other workers like that... seems like treading on very dangerous ground.
