Kent Borg <kentb...@borg.org> asked: > You mean you had legitimate service, service that you were paying > for, and they apparently cut the cables carrying that service? Yes, that's what I suspect. I was actually paying them $51/month at the time, as a long-time subscriber. You might think they'd start with a letter addressed to the homeowner asking about the status of tenants who appear to be pirating video feeds, but instead they brought out the dikes. > I am so glad we don't have cable service anymore. Now I have rabbit ears for TV, subscribing to Astound.Net for Internet (the California operations of RCN which they divested to an independent operator some years ago). Most of my neighbors use Comcast, ugh. Yet I still swear by Comcast for people in north Cambridge, simply because it's the first cable-modem system ever built (at the Sherman Street head-end) and has been maintained quite reliably ever since (now in its 20th year). -rich _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@blu.org http://lists.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
