MOD PARENT UP!!!! If your afraid science is going to teach your childred the truth (or at least an observable theory) then take them to private school. You have that right, and I have the right to keep your mind-controlling retarded beliefs out of public schools.

I admit it, I'm just too dumb to understand this article, or even the summary for that fact!
There was a blind student who graduated in my CIS class. That is freak'n amazing. It is still nice to see that technology is trying to make life a little easier for them though.
After a year and a half of getting on my family about the serious security holes IE contains, they finally have switched to Firefox. I think the ball is in motion. You must keep in mind that my family cares little or nothing about M$ vs. World, but even they are starting to catch on. Lets hope this movement continues!!!
The problem is ISP's keep changing the TOS and keep RESTRICTING the usage of their network. The noose is getting tighter and tighter, but the cost still keeps going up?!?
Good job at answering my question with another question. You're a clever one you:)
When Comcast came out with their cable modem service, I was one of the first onboard. Since then, it has gone completely downhill. I cannot get a static IP anymore. My modem was capped when I moved, and then I was lied to about it. A tech guy came to my house promising to fix it, rather he did a "reg hack" to help speed it up. Then, finally a month later, after numerous angry phone calls, they admit they were capping me!!! And now they want to start blocking my ports. And have I seen a price decrease because of my now less-than-what I purchased system? NO. I pay more now, about $15 more.
You may be right about them needing to do something about spam, and all the out-of-control zombies, but WHERE DOES IT STOP!!! Seriously. I'm tired of waking to Comcast telling me what I can and can't do today with my service.
Not everyone has the luxury of using static ip addresses. As a struggling college student, I have a hell of a time just paying for the internet service I have now with Comcast.
I setup my own mailserver just to learn the process, and now I'm learning how to maintain it, something that will be valuable for the real world. Why should I get screwed just because you don't like spam?
Anyways, blocking ports and capping speeds is a pile of shit anyways. At $50/month, they should be giving me a T3 line...
