fyi… mycybernet sucks. while i’m sure its better than bell, there service is horrible and they don’t/can’t fix problems when you do have them and you’re pretty much on your own. i’d suggest someone a little more reputable who can actually solve your problems instead of just saying “it’s not our fault”

I Agree…Time Warner Is Going To Get Hurt For Playing W/ Fire.

I’m So Anxious Waiting For ‘Em To Do The Move [I've Already Returned 1 Box W/Remote 'N' Downgraded To Basic Garbage Plan.] Once They Make Their Move, I’ll Cancel My Services…Cable ‘N’ Internet. Switch To Satellite Internet.

But I’ll Leave ‘Em Something To Remember Me…

They Have Injected Me With Poison To My Traffic…I’ve Injected ‘Em With More Than “400 GB” Of Data Transfers [Uploads/Seeding] Alone.

If Understand The Benefits Of Digitalized Media. IPTV VOIP ‘N’ IT Radio Among Others…Dump Time Warner Verizon, Etc…They ‘R’ The Next Snake To Come Out The Grass.

I’ll Be By The Watter By Then…

And Sandvine is an innocent party in all of this? Give me a fucking break, you little tool.

If Sandvine didn’t offer Bittorrent throttling using forged RST packets in the first place, then large greedy companies couldn’t use that service to screw over their customers.

I detect the aroma of COCK in your breath.

As for Sandvine… That’s one more shrimp on the barbie. Have fun sizzling right next to MediaDefender and the rest of its sleazy ilk; That’s your fate for joining the war to end filesharing, a goal which is truly synonymous with the word “futile”.[/quote]

Is Flaming Necessary? Can’t You Express Yourself W/Out Flaming???

After 1 F Word For Every 3 You Type I Don’t Even Feel Like Reading To See If You Really Have A Point Or Not.

Don’t Be So White Trash ‘N’ Gather A Decent Vocabulary. U Know?

Besides The Guy Made Sense. Just Cuz He Didn’t Say It Your Way Didn’t Make Him Wrong U’re A Tool…Nice Flaming.

If you don’t like Comcast so much then leave.

freedom of speach crap[/quote]

Neither do I use Comcast (heck, I don’t live in America at all) nor do I have anything to discuss with people who advocate those fraudsters and say that freedom of speech is crap.

So please, just go and lick your masters’ asses. Maybe they’ll throw a bone to you for being a good doggie.

I won’t even ask what the nickname is for… so do you know Ryan… you two seem to have much in common.

If you don’t like Comcast so much then leave. Fact is less then 5% of all users account for over HALF the bandwidth consumed at any one time. That doesn’t seem very fair to me.

The guy that invented this stupid protocol even said in a recent interview he designed BitTorrent to be unusually sloppy with its use of bandwidth. He thought it was funny… you know screw the ISPs.

So finally an ISP has the balls to enforce the agreement YOU signed when you signed up for the service and all you can do is bitch like a little school girl and wish people into bankruptcy.

What is even funnier are you loosers whinning about net neutrality… what… you going to pull that freedom of speach crap again?

PULLLEEEEZZZ!!!

Here’s the deal Nancy… quit Comcast and get another service and sshut the fuck up…

Now fetch me a drink before I have Gilligan come over there and kick your ass…

[quote comment="306859"]the ones who abuse the ISP service the most…[/quote]
…are actually paying their hard earned for the service. Why exactly shouldn’t we get what we pay for? High management of Comcast and the likes of them should look in dictionary for the word “honesty”. Because they have no clue about it.

[quote comment="306859"]And Sandvine most definitely won’t go bankcrupt.[/quote]
And also pigs will fly? Yeah, sure.

/sarcasm off

Do you use your thumbs when you type?? Because I’m thinking not… you don’t have any…

Between the vulgar laced diatribe you occasionally have some morsal of truth in your statements… even a blind squirrel can find a nut now and then.

But who is evil and who is the victim. If you want the bandwidth to shove your content upstream then pay for it. The systems you make fun of actually are designed to make sure that when you are ready to upload or download your daily requirement of beastyology and kiddy porn – its there ready for you to use.

The ones who bitch the loudest – like you – deserve it the least. Without these systems other users… oh say a doctor trying to read an X-ray downloaded from the local hospital, or a business person trying to conduct VALID business on the web their internet connection works… period.

You want to upload your ass off – then pay for it you 2-bit looser…

No… I guess not… Gilligan… fetch me another drink and don’t forget the umbrella!

And Sandvine is an innocent party in all of this? Give me a fucking break, you little tool.

First off, I am against what Comcast did and the way they did it.

However, you are the tool. Sandvine makes a product that does a lot more than just what you are bitching about. In fact, your cable connection wouldn’t be usable without the network management techniques employed by cable operators.

Maybe you should get that tool out of your mouth and do some research.[/quote]

And maybe you should get your head out of your ass. The issue isn’t a private company using traffic shaping management on their own company computer network. The issue is scumbags at Sandvine deliberately pitching their product to ISP’s for the sole purpose of denying to paying customers the bandwidth level that was promised, contracted, and paid for. A private company traffic shaping their own computer system is one thing. What Comcast and Sandvine are up to is not only wrong but technically illegal and now they’re both going to pay the price.

Next time perhaps it should be YOU doing some research before commenting. Now back on your knees. There’s still plenty of industry sausage for you to service.

Though I don’t understand the whole issue as it pertains to torrent traffic, traffic shaping, etc., I find it quite interesting reading.

Thanks for helping to point someone like myself in the direction to research this issue further with your links to articles and all. :)

As for the comment (#38) as to :

” Sandvine’s solutions are the most powerful ones in existence, and really, the Comcast incident was an accident. ”

I don’t understand what this means..??

How is what Comcast did using this Sandvine thing considered an “accident”…??

Did I miss something..??

Everything that I have read about this so far points to Comcast using this technology to deliberately block (or as they claim “delay” ) bittorrent traffic…

If the act is deliberate, then it can be in no way considered an “accident”.

Or am I missing something here..??

Thanks…

:)

The Comcast incident was an “accident”? Bitch, let’s get something clear.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sandvine#Controversy

Sandvine’s services to Comcast are configured BY DEFAULT(hence, configured by Sandvine itself) to wreak havoc with BitTorrent connections. In addition, the fact remains that without their little cohort, nobody using Comcast would be getting forged RST packets terminating their BT connections to begin with.

You, sir, are a major league cocksmoker, and Sandvine Inc. is on the receiving end.

Oh, and as for your LOL-worthy “people who complain are the ones who abuse the ISP service the most” comment, apparently you have never heard of anyone utilizing BitTorrent for legitimate content distribution. You know, like that one obscure, little known game studio… I think it’s called Blizzard Entertainment?

However, you are the tool. Sandvine makes a product that does a lot more than just what you are bitching about. In fact, your cable connection wouldn’t be usable without the network management techniques employed by cable operators.

Maybe you should get that tool out of your mouth and do some research.[/quote]

Maybe you should pull Sandvine’s cock out of your mouth and grow a fleck of integrity. Or is that even possible for you?

LOL, yeah… You aren’t a tool. Sure, you’re trying to abdicate Sandvine from guilt by laying all the blame on Comcast, while ignoring the fact that Sandvine ENABLES Comcast to fuck with torrents in the first place, but you aren’t a tool. No fucking sir.

…

That was sarcasm, incase you missed it. You are indeed a tool, a complete and utter one. Now then, why don’t you stop dicking around on the Internet and get back to shining Dave Caputo’s balls like a good little lackey?[/quote]

Sandvine’s solutions are the most powerful ones in existence, and really, the Comcast incident was an accident. You need to get your facts before you go around being a dick. People who complain are the ones who abuse the ISP service the most. And Sandvine most definitely won’t go bankcrupt.

Traffic shaping isn’t bad, corporations had it for ages. It’s when a large greedy company uses it to NOT give customers what they paid for.[/quote]

I totally agree with this.

corporations of this ilk should be strictly illegal. no lessons from Enron and Worldcom?

Sandvine, manufacturers of BitTorrent throttling technology has seen its first quarter sales drop 88% in a year. After achieving 42,000% growth in 5 years, the company – best known for providing the technology which put Comcast into the spotlight recen…

It’s about time companies realise the power of the people. Don’t screw people over.

The above phrases should not go unappreciated. When Comcast declared war on P2P — as many others had before — it had an unexpected result. If anyone successfully figured it out, at worst they expected the anger of a bunch of freeloaders (those trading in muzic, moviez and warez they shouldn’t share anyway). The FREE in freeloaders is the same as FREE found in FREE BEER — to use the apt analogy established by some in the Open Source community.

Instead, they drew a more powerful opponent force: those who support and defend freedom. In this case FREE referred to motherhood issues such as a FREE PRESS, FREE SPEECH, and a FREE PEOPLE with their own rights to an ever-growing sea of innovation, knowledge, and artistic expression.

The very inventors and pioneers of the Internet to staunch defenders of an independent press and open governments mounted a rigorous, uncoordinated, but simultaneous attack that blew the hidden Sandvine technology out of its forgery-protected husk and into the light of day for all to ponder. It’s discriminatory nature now available for all to see.

Back to Enigmax’s article, the Sandvine technology’s attraction is to save money. Telecoms (CATV MSOs in this case) can and will spend money — the question is, will they spend it on upgrades to meet consumer demand, or will they spend it on devices to secretly shape customer demand to their own will.

Since the Grass-roots forces of freedom dismantled the money-saving power of the Sandvine product, Telecoms find themselves having to rewrite their plans for 2008. Thus the Network Neutrality debate and Telecom buying factors mentioned above are inextricably linked together in a deadly Perfect Storm for Sandvine.

I’ve got two clients still in for about 165K shares as of last week, I’ve already been telling them it’s time to sell. Maybe they did and that’s what caused the drop… lots of guys are heading for the exits after the last report.

Hard to believe this stock ever made it off the venture exchange.
