My ass, nobody has been happy about these changes...
I wonder if you can opt out of them? |

What a load of garbage. I hope with this letter they have just tied their own noose since it gives the smaller isps clear evidence of breach of contract among other things. |

Wow... look at that:
1. Time of throttling 4:30 pm to 2:00 am;
2. Both retail and residential throttled;
3. Only admitted to throttling P2P and BT but not encrypted traffic (bad move); and
4. Finally, they are showing no remorse for the situation. They did not even bother quoting legal documents to prove that they have the right to do this. At any rate, it seems that Bell is in the line for a good old fashioned backlashing!
This letter, really, answers nothing and proves that Bell is full of themselves. |

Rocky,
How do you like your new status as a Sympatico reseller, since it appears that this is what this letter appears to be saying even as it says wholesale... |

Sounds like a bunch of smoke to me.. Kind of odd that they don't try and defend or justify their actions. It also doesn't sound like they have any real reason to do this other than to "make it fair" (i.e., if we have to do it so do you).
I love how they don't even tell mention the technology they are using. What is TekSavvy to do if this packet filtering starts affecting other services such as Gaming, Legit BT Traffic, VOIP, VPN, SSH, NNTP, etc.
Maybe they should take some of that $5 Million dollar raise they gave to Sabia and invest it in their infrastructure where it belongs. |

LOL!
They say it as if third party ISPS really congest Bells network infrastructure to the point of a slowdown yet they show no proof. (Its not really true, in fact technically imposible considering the size of bells customer base to that of thrid party isps)
What they are doing is taking away third party isps competetive edge to make their own customers feel better. That is illegal. They can't handle the fact that third party isps actually make a profit based on their efficient and effective dsl package products.
Combined with the press and public outcry I can't see bell continuing this much longer. |

"we are going to protect you and all your customers will be better off because of it"
What arrogance .... and what lies .... John sweeney ... he'll burn in hell for these lies once his time has come. Sooner rather than later.
It feels like the tone of a corporate parent talking to its affiliates not of a competitor.
Remember competition ? I guess they forgot all about it because they cant compete thus the only solution is to resort to throttling and playing god with other people's information. I guess the CRTC forgot the meaning of the word as well. |

This letter reeks of "it's easier to do it and apologize than to ask permission (or even just give a heads up) prior to doing it." |

Semantically, this sentence does not compute... Why was it neccessary to take this action whitout advising? How would not advising taking action allow for a fairer allocation of bandwith? |
