Have any of you been following those stories about ISPs like Comcast slowing down BitTorrent traffic?

It's kind of interesting. What it amounts to is... The ISPs have been selling more bandwidth than they have available, and now it's coming back to bite them. If they could provide everyone with the bandwidth that their Internet package states, then they would have no reason to try and limit the traffic.

In the past I stated how net neutrality could be a bad thing, because it would prevent ISPs from offering high-priority lanes for voice or video. But I see now that if the ISPs could simply provide the bandwidth that they are selling, then the current system would work fine. QoS should be handled on the home router.

I haven't seen this particular article Chug, but such traffic discrimination is supposed to go away by the end of the year according to this previous Comcast news posting.

However, I have also recently read here that Comcast is considering to no longer toute their Internet packages as being "unlimited", since it never really was anyway, and apply a clear download limit of like 250 GB/month.
