Mediacom

I am a Telecommunications Commissioner for the city of Iowa City. Our incumbent provider is Mediacom. After reading about NebuAd here on Broadband Reports, I asked our Mediacom Gov't Liason, and as a bonus due to a courtesy visit the VP of Gov't Relations and Community Affairs, if Mediacom was employing "NebuAd or any other deep packet inspection utility for advertising or marketing purposes." They stated that they had not heard of NebuAd or deep packet inspection, and after clarification of the question, it was not believed to be so, but that they would get back to us. This was at the March 24 meeting and no definitive answer has been given. I will be following up and will update on their response.

I would be interested to hear if anyone else has asked Mediacom this question and if so what their response was.

Recieved the following:

"We do not do any deep packet mining or any marketing redirect practices as a matter of policy."
