Or, from Comcast's point of view, it is preventing network abuse and stopping customers from violating the terms of their contracts. By the way, it seems to me that the first order of business on this list should be to define "network neutrality." I see network neutrality as remaining neutral with regard to content providers, but not necessarily with regard to applications. (There are good technical reasons to do things like prioritize VoIP packets, for example.) --Brett Glass _______________________________________________ NNSquad mailing list information: http://lists.nnsquad.org/mailman/listinfo/nnsquad
