| does this section of CRTC rules apply to DPI of bell.....

Section 36 also says: "Except where the commission approves otherwise, a Canadian carrier shall not control the content or influence the meaning or purpose of telecommunications carried by it for the public."
By inspecting they are purposly slowly and thus influencing the speed as well as ...
Section 27 (2) of the Telecommunications Act says: "No Canadian carrier shall, in relation to the provision of a telecommunications service or the charging of a rate for it, unjustly discriminate or give an undue or unreasonable preference toward any person, including itself, or subject any person to an undue or unreasonable disadvantage."
The above section might apply to bittorrent companies like bittorrent.com Vuse and other p2p protocols that use efficient distribution models that shove the cost to the end user/customer and thusly save all parties money for a cheaper product.
Also opensource projects and companies that make software and distributions are thusly discriminated against under section 27 and as yet none have added themselves to the list of the CAIP filings, sad where is your linux venders when you need them( at least they too might have a buck and if they wanted to increase a market share at minimum you get some publicity-sides be nice to see one come forth and make my case for linux in gov't [cost savings is proven , don't let MS cronies tell you otherwise that a OS that costs per CPU is going to be cheaper then one that is FREE per CPU) |

| This is in the realm of lawyers like CIPPIC.
But my take is this ...
Section 36 is certainly feasible although questionable ... slowing it doesn't change the content or change the meaning or purpose of the content, although it may make it so slow as to be unusable.
Section 27(2) is another difficult one in as much as they say that by throttling everyone nobody gets a preference. If they were not to throttle the indies, then they'd be giving negative preference to sympatico ... at least that's the argument. |

| I have a vague recollection that this section was applied to a case where a voice conversation was unduly delayed. The responses of each side in the conversation were electronically delayed, giving the impression that each were hesitating in their response. The ruling was that the electronic delay caused a change in the content of the conversation, so such delays had to be limited. If any one knows if my recollection is correct, the details might apply here. |
