It’s Simple - What Comcast Did Was Wrong
Will you folks who are attempting to justify these actions please stop? Please!!!
Damn… I’ll give them the fact that they have the right to shape traffic, it’s their equipment and they’re providing a service! Which many pay for dearly.
They have a TOS that those who pay for their services agree to from jump-street. If you violate them, you lose, it’s simple!
But here’s the problem and it’s not as if millions of you haven’t seen or read this;
“Comcast’s technology falsely impersonates its customers. Even if Comcast has the right to manage its networks, does it have the right to impersonate its customers to achieve network control? Clearly Comcast engaged in such a deceitful practice to avoid customers noticing and complaining. Such behavior may very well fall within the type of unfair or deceptive trade practices regulated by the Federal Trade Commission.”
Begging the question - why could they not just go after those violators one by one and eliminate them? Hell, their technology can falsify a packets’ identity, it ought to be kindygarten stuff to go after a handful of excess content downloaders! Be open and honest and post their names publicly after you’ve gone through a proper legal process to identify and stop them and move the heck on… but don’t screw the innocent!
That’s why our founding fathers wrote what they wrote. Oh, sorry, I forgot, the Constitution was declared unconstitutional, wasn’t it? My mistake.
