Re: Fight the fight!
said by cableties  :I will always object to stopping/controlling P2P until they stop the spamming. And I doubt that will happen... Spam isn't gobbling up bandwidth in the last mile like P2P is. Not the same thing at all.

Reston, VA | Besides, Spam costs the customer money and generates money for the ISP, whereas P2P costs the ISP money. These are prioritized accordingly. |

1 edit | The people that create and send the spam usually have a considerable amount of bandwidth themselves, despite the fact that they use nefarious methods. Unless things have changed, which is possible, these guys aren't running their operations from a Starbuck's. |

The people that File Share usually have a considerable amount of bandwidth themselves, despite the fact that they use BT/Usenet/Direct Download. Unless things have changed, which is possible, these guys aren't running their operations from a Starbuck's.
Sorry jmn... I had to point that out. 
EDIT: It has been said, many times by many people, The only reason for faster connections is for filesharing or "stealing".
Well, I have 16mbps x 2mbps.
But, seeing as I barely hit 35GB per month combined directions... something just doesn't add up, does it?

Gaithersburg, MD | I think that should be part of the MP/RIAA's New Quality campaign: "No Shit!" When you see those words on an **AA release it's guaranteed to be good or double your bandwidth back! Ah well, I can dream...*grin* |
