    Please don't use "assclowns." Such an annoying word.

    Not as annoying as Comcast's monopoly, soon to be even bigger!

    Honestly, I don't see anything so wrong about this. It's something businesses do to make more money. Microsoft did this sort thing all the time, and still continues to do so. But if I used Netflix, I'd probably be a bit more angry.

    Your right, from a business standpoint I understand it. From a consumer standpoint its another obvious attempt by Comcast to control the market at the consumers expense. Microsoft has also been punished for this type behavior.

    Hmm, i never knew such net neutrality laws existed. That does sound wrong.

    On a side note, I live like 4 blocks away from Comcast HQ. Should I throw rocks at their building?

    (apparently, that building I live by isn't HQ, which is actually like 2 blks from where I work instead. )
