The aup states that comcast can terminate your service at any time for any reason, its pretty clear they can allready and you agreed to it when you took their service.
For clarification, Comcast's AUP indicates that they can terminate your service at any time for violating the TOS / AUP. Comcast's Subscriber Agreement indicates that they can terminate your service upon 30 days notice for any other reason.

Isn't it far more likely that if this practice is publicized, Comcast will DROP the cap, since their competitors don't have one, and a "hard cap" would put them at a disadvantage?

I guess you are a cox sucker;)

Just look at what cox has done and you will have your answer. The poster you responded to is correct, the caps will probably be set to 40 or 60 a month if they hardline it.

That's the dumbest thing I've ever read...you like knowing that your connection may be terminated at any time, without any explaination?

As far as removing the cap, cox was in this SAME situation and when this crap happened(overblown news reports and fear tactics by the abusers) they set a 30 gig cap, why would comcast be any different, the user base and technology is the same?

"They are only sending letters to people above 100 gigs or more, this is the kind of fear tactic this news report is ment to instill, I dont want comcast to set a hardcap cause it will be far less than the softcap is now."
