Sorry for the cross-post, but I think this one is worth it. I've come to the conclusion that the way that companies like Comcast and Dell work is by us making a stink. Recently, a post caught my attention and I want to do my part to stop the tiered internet before it starts.
My friend Christer Edwards posted an article about how he is getting the shaft when it comes to torrent traffic. He's just sharing his torrents for Ubuntu. I disagree with Comcast charging him for his bittorent traffic as if its not appropriate. There are a lot of reasons we need to keep them from doing this, but I think Christer's article says it best.
