Those who oppose your view are out to fulfill their own selfish interests. Comcast will continue to block the freeloaders because they abuse their privledges. My motorcycle has 145 MPH on the speedometer and I paid for a bike that will do every bit of that and more. However, society has decided, legally I might add, to restrict my speed administratively. It\'s \"their\" ballgame and \"they\" make the rules. Comcast does the same.<br><br>So to you freeloaders and miscreants who oppose this point of view, I say bring it on brother. I do love to see the selfish and abusive individuals squirm. And, well, you;re the ones crying......not me and mark. And to me that is so comical. Dead on Mark…simply dead on.

Hell no. Ask Comcast why there is no bandwidth issue on my node near the NW side of Chicago. It\'s because Time Warner invested in a fiber backbone here, just before being bought out by the big C. Had Comcast been investing in fiber elswhere early on (as opposed to the cheaper upgrades performed), they wouldn\'t be faced (again) with that upgrade delemma.

If somepays for bandwidth, they should be the ones to decide how they use it–NOT YOU!!

Do us all a favor and keep you very STUPID opinion to yourself. Don\’t give those jerks any ideas that real thinking internet users might agree with you–THEY DON\’T.

The problem is oversold–undelivered–bandwidth. The problem is NOT how any group of users choses how to use the bandwidth the have contracted.

Do use all a favor, and don\’t get high before you write your next blog!
