The print article I read today actually sited BitTorrent as the one who monitors it content and limits it's files to non-commercial stuff |

I think its more to create more bandwidth for new customers.Torrents have no doubt been tagged as band hogs either up or down which affects the whole network speed.Of course w paid for the service and they advertised theire great speeds.Now they wanna secretly change teh rules...Typical way to screw the public...Comcast?...They are a cable company screwin consumers is what they do! |
