Comcast is beginning to act like the government—tapping into the internet pipeline to serve its own purposes. In the monitoring and flagging of users, holding ‘unlimited’ accounts, Comcast has allegedly been delaying or denying large upload requests. This primarily affects peer-to-peer networks, such as Bittorrent, which significantly lowers download speeds. Since we don’t like the government interfering with the internet, we should take Comcast to task.

Great work.
Thanks!
It’s an example of the IEW writing process–which, admittedly, has been slipping from my more recent writing. :) Regardless, it remains worthwhile.
Glad you could stop by!
