:Hello people
I am not a teksavvy user but I applaud and support all of your efforts to stop the throttling that bell has invoked on all of us.
If there are websites that has 24/7 streaming video and everyone on the network were to have their computers contiually accessing and using bandwidth for streaming, would that not overload bells system(as a form of silent protest)..... Just a question/suggestion
If it is not a plausible idea that please excuse my ignorance and naivete.
What you are proposing is no less than a conspiracy to attempt to overload Bell's network, and is illegal. It would be the same as trying to cause damage by picking up thousands of handsets or flushing thousands of toilets simultaneously. All would be guilty of conspiracy, and the ringleader would be punished or prosecuted.
