Too lazy to type it out so I'll just copy/paste from Wikipedia:

As early as late 2006, Comcast has implemented measures using Sandvine hardware which sends forged TCP RST (reset) packets, disrupting multiple protocols used by peer-to-peer file sharing networks.[65] This has prevented most Comcast users from uploading files.[66]

On August 17, 2007, TorrentFreak reported that Comcast has been preventing BitTorrent users from seeding files.[66] In October 2007, the Associated Press confirmed the story that indicates that Comcast "actively interferes with attempts by some of its high-speed Internet subscribers to share files online, a move that runs counter to the tradition of treating all types of Net traffic equally."[67] In November 2007, Comcast's severe limiting of torrent applications was again confirmed by a study conducted by the Electronic Frontier Foundation, in which public domain literature is distributed over peer-to-peer networks. Analysis of the EFF study finds "strong evidence that Comcast is using packet-forging to disrupt peer-to-peer (P2P) file sharing on their network".[68] The studies show that Comcast effectively prevents distribution of files over peer-to-peer networks by sending a RST packet under the guise of the end user, and denying the connection, which effectively blocks the user from seeding over BitTorrent. Legal controversy arises because instead of simple filtering, Comcast is sending RST packets to Comcast customers, pretending to be the host user at the other end of the BitTorrent connection.[69] Comcast's BitTorrent throttling was revealed to be through a partnership with Sandvine, although Comcast's internal memos instruct employees to respond to the contrary.[70][71]

There is also evidence of Comcast using RST packets on groupware applications that have nothing to do with file sharing. Kevin Kanarski, who works as a Lotus Notes messaging engineer, noticed some strange behavior with Lotus Notes dropping emails when hooked up to a Comcast connection and has managed to verify that Comcast's reset packets are the culprit.[72] A lawsuit, Hart v. Comcast, has been filed accusing Comcast of false advertising and other unfair trade practices for allegedly advertising unlimited high-speed Internet access while in reality working to restrict their customers' usage of the Internet.[73]

In 2007, Comcast customers reported a sporadic inability to use Google, because forged RST packets are interfering with HTTP access to google.com,[74] which has further angered users.[75]

In January 2008, FCC Chairman Kevin Martin stated that the FCC is going to investigate complaints that Comcast "actively interferes with Internet traffic as its subscribers try to share files online".[76] During a February 2008 FCC hearing in Boston, Comcast admitted they paid people to hold seats. The company claimed it was so staffers could attend later, but opponents claimed it was to keep Comcast opponents from attending.[77] The FCC has stated it expects to rule on the issue by June 30, 2008.[78]

Comcast and BitTorrent Inc. agreed in late March 2008 to work together in a collaborative effort that will leave the network provider to reconfigure its network to manage traffic in a more protocol-agnostic way.[79] Implementation was projected for late 2008.

Prior to implementation of Comcast's apparent agreements with BitTorrent, Inc., Comcast is reported to be continuing to limit bandwidth available to peer to peer applications. In April 2008, Comcast proposed a "P2P Bill of Rights and Responsibilities" to address potential copyright infringement by users of peer to peer applications,[80] but some scholars argue that this is a veiled attempt by Comcast to strengthen its traffic management capability rather than fight copyright infringement.[81]

On August 21, 2008 the FCC issued an order which stated that Comcast's network management was unreasonable and that Comcast must terminate the use of its discriminatory network management by the end of the year. (File no: EB-08-IH-1518). On January 18, 2009, after reconfiguring their traffic management regime, Comcast was asked by the FCC to address their alleged throttling of VoIP customers.[82]

And that's just Comcast...AT&T, Verizon, and several others are guilty of similar actions against their users. While I'm aware these businesses have every right to protect their bottom line, this kind of crap is the reason Net neutrality has become a big issue (although its technically been a big issue for years).

There's a much easier (and cost effective) way for the ISP's to get what they want: monthly data caps

I like it in theory then, but from what I read last the FCC isn't speaking on what the new bill is all about. Why wouldn't they declare it.

I think I read the article on ABC but i'm not sure

1000!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! yeah!!!!

much love SSA!

woot!

they're not speaking about it because they're still working on it

Mr. Genachowski's proposal is a working draft that could still change significantly. The FCC is scheduled to vote Oct. 22 on unveiling the proposals to the public. It could be late spring or summer before the final net-neutrality rules are released.

Tippy toppy.

dem beats how has Jack been?

I are skeptical!

Keep an eye out on EFF's website for the next 10 days or so then

they are all in league with the monkey robot zombie vampire ninja army.

I don't trust no one.

dem beats how has Jack been?

pissed off because he has to stay locked up in our bedroom at night.

And the sleet/rain. He's not a fan of going out in the cold rain/wet.

Not that I blame him. I get to at least cover my balls with fabric. His avacados just hang so to speak.

poor bastard lol.

My dog also does not like to get wet. My sister just got an English female, light brown with a black mask.

Among the 11 people who want to be mayor of Minneapolis are three people who claim Democratic Farmer-Labor allegiances, one Socialist Worker's Party candidate, a Libertarian and a man from something called the Edgertonite Party, which believes in communism, that the region should secede from the United States and that Laura Ingalls Wilder is God.

WTF?

Borat has to be one of the dumbest movies I've ever seen.

2 please. 1 for driving, one to wipe the err um, nevermind.

Exxon interview tomorrow....

cross your fingers

Kill 'em Kader!

I need to build another for the shop TV to mount in our conference room, and for that one I get to test, then build. The joys of working where I do means it gets mounted under an actuator and tested, then tested, then tested, then built for final use.

You need to fly out here and build us a trick new TV / stereo rig. Will pay in vodka and turkey burgers.
