Content filtering policy prevents bandwidth chokers like P2P etc... Also note that portal Capture mechanisms interfere with a range of devices, google glass among them. > On May 11, 2014, at 8:00 AM, "mcn-l-request at mcn.edu" <mcn-l-request at > mcn.edu> wrote: > > Send mcn-l mailing list submissions to > mcn-l at mcn.edu > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > http://mcn.edu/mailman/listinfo/mcn-l > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > mcn-l-request at mcn.edu > > You can reach the person managing the list at > mcn-l-owner at mcn.edu > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific > than "Re: Contents of mcn-l digest..." > > > Today's Topics: > > 1.
