Re: Eh Upgrading a single or a few nodes with increased bandwidth to handle congestion is a drop in the bucket to a company as large as Comcast. Employing any sort of traffic throttling is simply a way to allow a very profitable company to avoid having to spend money to provide the same quality of service to *all* its users.
In technology it's the heaviest and most prolific users who ride the wave of new tech and applications. They often tend to be early adopters and the ones who spend the most money (like on Comcast's highest bandwidth tiers). Any sort of throttling is bad for consumers as it stifles innovation on the application provider's end. |
