Comcast was not the only one doing this. Most Persian Gulf nations also purchased the software to do same. That is now acceptable under the new rules that say a data transporter can do anything they want. They can throttle packets from one company while not from others. They can skew packets to intentionally subvert or make unreliable communications from selected companies. And they can now deny they are doing it. All that and more is now legal. Wacko Trump supporters say this is good. To them, this is called innovation. |

Comcast created it own VoIP service about the same time it was intentionally subvert P2P data transportation. Services such as Vonnage also noted intermittent data transport problems with their VoIP service.

An internet provider once was required to transport all data without regard to content. Then innovation could happen. Information service providers were once considered a completely different service subject to different rules. Without net neutrality, Comcast is free to subvert data packets from any competitor. And Trump supporters say this is good - inventing a lie that it will increase innovation. We all have seen reduced competition due to attacks on net neutrality by Michael Powell during the George Jr administration. Now and again, a next wave of internet obstructions to innovation has begun. |
