Re: Bell Throttling: Supreme Court allows class action lawsuit said by LostTheGame:I recall peak-hour P2P throttling specified in my terms back then. Something along the lines of "Bell reserves the right to..."
Um. No.
When it started Bell had ZERO notice about this no matter how many dots "..." you want to put after the non-complete sentence.
Nor did it ever stated this while they claimed they were the fastest in Canada (which was a lie since Videotron was faster at the time and won the broadband wars, as detailed by Mark Goldberg, a bell fanboi).
There was no "peak time protocol specific anything" in their ToS, EVER.
IN addition to this, entire lines were throttled if you used encrypted FTP. Also, part of the install of bit-torrent at the time was an app called BTDNA which would load on start-up in windows. When that app started up with windows, again your entire line was throttles even if you didn't use any torrents, as my wife details in the Bell.ca forum and showed people how to remove this to get rid of the throttle when not running any p2p app.
But hey, feel free to post it and correct me. And show me wrong.
In addition, the Bell forum, when it existed on bell.ca domain, had the Bell employee's stating there is no throttle when there was. As was the case in this forum.
Same is true for Cogeco, which should have had their own class action based on what was reveled during the throttle hearings while Cogeco employee's were denying it up on down on this forum.
So, umm, no. | |

Cogeco still does it, and it's even worse now, they dumb down pretty much all streaming video.  | | |
