I lived in Waterville... I see people still remember that incident
I for one HATED buckeye express. $60 a month for 600/100 speeds (I believe caps were set at 1000/128) and I can see why these guys thought that uncapping their cable modems was a good idea. However, I don't feel sorry for them being caught, they knew it was wrong and did it anyway. The way that Buckeye sees it is... who in the world is going to have the guts to uncap now? These guys will get off with just a slap on the wrist in the end, but the Toledo area will always remember what happened to them because of what they tried. -- Chicks dig me!!!

I agree that these guys were wrong to do what they did but come on... the FBI? I mean... I think the FBI actually has some real priorities such as fighting terrorism. IMO, even getting the local police involved would be a stretch as well. I don't understand why the suggestion made by a previous poster regarding termination of the service and billing for that is inadequate. -- DRM == Doesn't Read MP3s
reply to scavio Wrong? I guess it was OK for AT&T to buy my ISP and CAP my bandwidth at half of what it was for the same price. Then they had the balls to post an FAQ stating they were doing this to "improve service" to all their customers. (No one could have frequently asked that question because we were all without service for a week to 10 days, and no one at AT&T was answering the phones). I think it's too bad they got caught, because "stealing" works both ways. Some just don't have to worry about the law.
