On the contrary! Bruce, Lance and Sven at the gym told me their favorite pair was the puce colored ones. They are big and brawny and love to grunt, and couldn't possibly be gay. Could they? Nick McClure wrote: HA HA you are t3h gh3y -Original Message- From: Crow T. Robot

Once you accept that there is an advantage, ANY advantage that this creates for those Rich Corporations that can afford to pay, then you must also accept that this disastrously alters the free and level internet where once you pay for your bandwidth you have just as much service on a network

First of all, there is no equality on the Net. I can go to Verizon or Level3 and pay them gobs of money and get more bandwidth than the little guys. The only change I perceive is the possibility that you would have to pay for a ceiling as well as a floor, but even then, most ISPs already have a

Nope, you guys are not understanding what they are talking about. Currently, the entire basis of the internet, and the basic underpinning of TCPIP is that all packets are treated equally. They are passed from here to there without regard to where it came from, and with no preferential treatment

If the pipe ain't full then it won't matter. They would have to be overtly shaping the non payers down. Which isn't part of the proposal. You are suggesting that on an empty pipe they throttle connections? That is just silly, TCP/IP doesn't work that way. -Original Message- From:

This is akin to the USPS, DHL, and Fedex providing a service. A package gets sent out from Woot to my house. But when they get into my town, the post office decides that, unless woot pays extra, the package will get put in a whenever we feel like delivering it bin, even though I paid for

But neither TCP or UDP work that way. Are you saying that Verizon, a company that I don't use, and the site I'm trying to get to doesn't use, but sometimes my route to that site goes through verizon, has put in place a traffic shaping system that reads the destination, and changes its route mode

I think I understand perfectly. Here is the key phrase: if there are a lot of high-priority packets to be delivered. So if bandwidth is saturated, lower priority content gets put in the low-priority queue. Companies do this internally with Internet-based WANs all the time. Does it make some things
