Why not call for a credit or complain to your ISP?

I'm surprised that no one has posted a thread or follow up article detailing their experience where they called Comcast and complained about this, demanded credits, etc etc.

This seems like a perfect article for the Broadband Reports service "gurus" to translate into filth blaming ISPs/traffic shaping/Ted Stevens for "black holes".

Seriously... I mean this is someone/some companies fault and they must be ruthlessly harassed about it?? RIGHT!?!

Do they pay you to do it, or do you do it for free?

Who is "they"?
What is "it"?
What currency?

Re: Why not call for a credit or complain to your ISP?

Seriously... so if I said I'm not even in/from the USA and the only reason I wrote "Comcast" is because the post immediately previous did, would that satisfy all your off the mark "analysis" of me being some paid industry hack?

I mean, even an Admin could probably confirm that I'm in Canada and all the posts that came from this username in the last 5 years are from Canada.

But why do that, when wild conjecture and finger pointing are so much fun!

Ironically, this really fits nicely with the substance of my original post... too many here are quick to judge and prone to theatrics.

I agree with you. Yes, yes you are.
