Obviusly Goth you didnt read the whole story....
"Comcast wants the former — to dictate which Web sites and services go fast, slow or don’t load at all. And they’re backed by the other would-be gatekeepers at AT&T, Verizon and Time Warner."
So much for <3 AT&T huh?

Tell ya what... I've got Comcast and I fricking love it. My speeds have never been a problem, all the dropping connections I used to have are gone (and as Rocko may be able to tell you, a 200 foot drop from the pole to my house will cause that to happen frequently). With the new Comcast Building going up here in Philly & all digital TV & internet lines being routed through it with state-of-the-art fiber optics I'm looking at a doubling of my connection speeds within a year most likely.
I don't have websites that are dropped.
I don't have websites that "load slower."
I don't believe everything I read on the internet.
I believe my own experience.

I can't read articles like this, they make me angry.
Coeus, I also believe that experienced opinions are best, BUT, a 'good' company wouldn't pay people to fill seats in a 'public' conference if they didn't have bad news to hide

Like I said, believe everything you read/see/hear? Especially when talking smack about a corporation? When has anyone ever had anything good to say about corporations over the net no matter who they are or what they do? And I'd wager that if there is any truth to that rumor at all that it would also follow true for every other single corporation in the world.
