| Europe 1 / US 0 It is great to see that Europe starts to see the light while here our corporations stifle the growth of the Internet in the country that invented it.
Good job, Comcast and AT&T. |

When Comcast targeted a specific protocol(like P2P) for network mgt, all hell broke loose and they were crucified by many. But when BT does the same thing, it is Europe sees the light? Consistency please.

Consistency please. Not everybody can be as "consistent" as you defending any anti-customer measure a greedy corporation adopts. ANY measure that gives more the customer for its money is a good one in my book. That is what free competition would generate. |

Comcast is targeting a specific protocol: it's called internet video and it comes in HD.
Comcast doesn't want to face the fact that it's a dumb pipe....
Not fooling me Comcast... |

What Comcast did was to hack into the users P2P stream and insert a 'end data transfer command'. You can call that 'traffic management', but everyone else calls it hacking.
Still no reports on Comcast executives being sent to jail for a few years for that crime. |
