Comcast: We'll Continue To Play Nice In Lieu of Court Ruling > Dear JLivingood

said by espaeth:

They went from a completely opaque organization implementing technology without notice to participating in the IETF and documenting their implementation strategies publicly at »networkmanagement.comcast.net/ That's pretty significant for having "never changed."

No company is perfect, but to argue that nothing has changed is just pure absurdity.

Smoke and mirrors. They knew the perfect storm of regulator ire, legislative nosiness and public backlash was brewing and made a few public relations changes....deep down inside, it's still the same old Comcast it always was.

There are no shortage of reasons why large companies are evil, but you can occasionally put down the Hatorade and acknowledge when they do something right.

Some day I'm going to have to write up some kind of a blog post or longer article about how much this affected everyday stuff. Many of you would be (pleasantly) surprised I suspect.
