| wake up call. If most users never reach the 250GB cap anyway. then why do they need the stupid caps at all then .
the few users who do go over that, no way should be affecting the network that much.
but if they are, atleast offer a 1TB cap or something higher with a higher price. simple. keep it simple.
caps can be a temporary solution, but not long term, lets be real.
This is a really good article and should be posted everwhere for north america to see.
wake up call . |

It does not make any sense how 1 user out of 100 can be uploading at 1mb/s and ruin 99 other people's internet experience. |

kudos:1 | Because the caps aren't about preserving the user experience... That's what the network management system is for...
The caps have another purpose all together: preventing alternative sources of video that compete with "OnDemand" like Vudu, iTunes/Apple TV, and NetFlix Streaming from taking hold.
See the "Bandwidth" sticky thread in the Comcast HSI forum: »The Bandwidth Limits/Congestion Management Topic
Especially this post: »Re: Bandwidth Limits/Congestion Management - All discussion here

And we have dug deep to find out the real reasons these companies are doing what they are doing. Trust me, its not about congestion. It cant be. Fortunately, those " 1 our of 100 people " also have the intelligence and "geek" savvy to understand, quite cleary, this is complete FUCKING BULLSHIT
was I being vaguely brief and blunt enough on this ?
This has gone so much further than caps and congestion that I can almost taste my own puke stuck up into my throat.
This is how disgustingly obvious the reality within this mess actually is.
and all in all I have to only surrender to more pain towards the people that run this world =~( |
