Once you run Comcast's statement through the bullshit filter, what they
said is they are going to stop logging the source IP of requests, and
that's all that they have done.
They still get your requests and the corresponding data, they just don't
track which machine it came from. In the "log" directory anyway, the
"cache" directory is a different story.
There are more proxies now than there were when the story broke, and it
looks like comcast intends to continue intercepting our traffic.
This is the equivalent of the phone company getting caught recording all
of your calls, and then responding by promising not to record the number
of the phone you use as they continue to record your calls.
Here's a current list. Coming soon to a neighborhood near you.

/. through the comcast proxies. Coincidence?
