Re: :\

Depends on how you interpret the law.

If I made phone calls to a buncha people, spoofing my caller ID into your phone #, It'd be identity theft.

Comcast sending fake packets you did not initiate, could be viewed the same way.

But then again, Packet inspection should be labeled a invasion of privacy...and so far it isn't, so it's all just "Could bes" until/if a court decides.

Either way... I hope comcast loses in the appeal, throttling is one thing, forging packets is another.
