Comcast Sued for BitTorrent Throttling, Mulls Data Caps

By soulxtc

ADVERTISEMENTS

The ISP still struggles to address network traffic management issues. Despite declaring plans to now undertake a "collaborative effort" with BitTorrent Inc. to address network traffic management issues, Comcast is now the target of 3 class action lawsuits in California, Illinois, and New Jersey for falsely promising "unfettered access to all the content, services, and applications that the Internet has to offer." Comcast, which has some 14 million broadband subscribers, was found to have been throttling BitTorrent traffic late last year, and soon after became the subject of an FCC investigation and several public hearings. "Comcast's clandestine techniques are similar to those used by totalitarian governments to censor the use of the Internet," reads the complaint filed in Illinois.
