I just don't want to believe that PPL are so gullable.

Any time that an ISP uses "deep packet inspection" they are opening the packet. In real terms this is as opening a letter you have sent through Canada Post.

This means they have broken Privacy Laws! It also means they have broken their contract as to advertised speeds and terms of service.

ISP's are NOT CSIS, RCMP or any Canadian national security agency. They don't provide a warrant or any legal standing before doing so.

ISP's have No right to send Reset code to both parties. This is also illegal!

You have the right to take them to court for any infraction, charge them for lost time, bandwidth, work etc. and get your proper service back.

TCP/IP has it's own checks and sums that can be used to admin a user account. Instead they, ISP's, use intrusion code to throttle everyone.

Come on, what's it gona take to wake PPL up?

All you have to do now is actually prove they are opening your packets with datestamps.

Further, there is a clause (if I recall correctly) in Rogers EULA regarding courts cases between you and them. Basically stating, you waive the right to take them to court. You either agree to use the service or end your contract.

What happened to net neutrality, EFF and privacy laws?
Stupid Bell monopolies...and their crap!
Typical government not doing enough or keeping up with digital laws regarding this crap that Bell and others are doing.
Damn too bad Bell's doing it to other DSL resellers like Tecksavvy cuz they got best rating for ISP compared to Bell.

isnt this a DMCA violation?

If this is true, and deep-packet inspection does open up the packets, wouldnt that be a violation of the DMCA?

I thought that if **ia's can go after you for breaking the encyrption, can't you go after the isps uing the same logic?

The DMCA is only applicable to the USA. Thankfully, we aren't yet the 51st state!
