Very bad change.

Bittorrent speeds have not been reduced as far as I know. I read somewhere that Comcast can't do anything if you encrypt your connections, so that is what I have been doing and haven't noticed anything.



I really hope that they don't throttle people down or put up caps. I don't think that I would be effected by throttling, because I live way out in no where and don't get any of the effects of too much traffic on the cable line. Though I think that I would get effected by caps.
Comcast doesn't seem to be making smart choices. Their is DSL in the area that will make due if need be. As well, our Power Company is in the processes of laying down Fiber Optic. Going to be 10% cheaper then Comcast and offer 5x the speed minimum.
I just don't get why you would offer speeds and advertise 6Mb and 8Mb downloads, but then cap or throttle you. That is just wrong. You pay for a service and you had better get that service to the full extent. If you cap, might as well lower your speeds and reduce your prices, as well if you throttle users.


If these changes do start going down, I really hope that they get attacked by hackers hardcore. By the time, we will be on Fiber Optic, but still. lol.
Comcast has been so lazy here, all they have done is raised their prices, and fight the Power Company in Court which they have lost 3 times. Yet Comcast still does nothing to upgrade their infrastructure. Once the Power Company gets online, Comcast is seriously screwed!
