  1. Baby bells are in on it too... by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 0 · on Comcast Continues to Block Peer to Peer Traffic

    It's true, smaller midwest outfits such as Northwest Communications/Wildblue and Long Lines, among others, have literally been blocking all p2p traffic for all customers without any regard to content. They don't care if it's legitimate software, such as a Linux distribution. If it's using bittorrent or something similar, it's automatically in the wrong and needs to be blocked, that's how they're looking at it.

    Makes me sick to know that non-technical idiots are running the internet in certain places. They look at how they're doing it in Hollywood with the RIAA and MPAA and automatically get down and start doing some dirty work on their knees... no wonder the prison system works so well in this country, look who's getting the other end of the stick.

    Of course, if they hadn't blocked the traffic in the first place, none of this would have been revealed. Oops, sorry, but no, the customer is always right, even when they're wrong. Guess they need to get some people to work for them that have some real education and real experience, not just one or the other.
