      Comcast - Illinois
      After a couple frustrating calls to Comcast without any results I finally figured out the right number to call to get taken off their mailing list! This week alone I have received 7 mailers, only 1 of which was actually addressed to me. The other 6 were for apartments that don’t even exist in our building. Okay so here’s the info. The company who does their mailings is Advance Mailing Systems Northlake,IL (708) 836-0600

      Comcast Considering 250GB Monthly Data Caps, Disconnecting Repeat Pirates [Rumor]
      Other than Time Warner's single-city foray into monthly data caps, consumption-based billing has mostly been little ISPs with little monopolies, and given the market, we thought it'd stay that way. Broadband Reports is, uh, reporting that now Comcast is mulling monthly caps (which Comcast's PR guy confirms, though not the details)—something like 250GB, and then $1.50 for every GB over that. According to their source, the idea has "a lot of momentum" and it'll start rolling out in the next two months. The other part is that they're going to start ramping up DMCA notices to pirate assholes, with a total disconnect if you've gotten four letters in a 12-month period. If this is entering the mix with Comcast's new "protocol agnostic" network management technique (in something closer to En

      Comcast/e360 Decision Points Out Divide Between Senders and ISPs
      Earlier this month, Judge James B. Zagel became part of the email marketing industry’s history with his ruling on the landmark e360 Prospect vs. Comcast case. In his decision, Zagel dismissed all of e360’s claims outright, while keeping in play Comcast’s countersuit against the company. Ouch. To me, the most fascinating of e360’s four [...]

      COMCAST problems....
      If you are a subscriber to my Accentuate Writers board, and you are a Comcast Subscriber, you should know that Comcast is being way too aggressive and stupid about their spam blocking. I very rarely will badmouth any company, particularly in public where anyone and everyone can read it, but I am sick and tired of Comcast's aggressive spam filters that block out innocent non-spam emails that YOU

      Comcast opens up about how it manages traffic
      Managing online traffic can be risky stuff. Just ask Comcast. The cable TV giant came under fire recently when it slowed a "peer-to-peer" transmission of the King James Bible sent as a test by an Associated Press reporter. At two special hearings held by the Federal Communications Commission — one at Harvard and another last week at Stanford — the company was excoriated for delaying peer-to-peer

      University of Colorado was wrong. Comcast is not blocking web traffic
      The researchers at the University of Colorado discovered that they were able to generate the same type of forged TCP reset packets used by Comcast to block ("delay," according to the cable provider) BitTorrent uploads. During peak traffic periods, the researchers saw TCP reset packets popping up all over the place, which they said were "aimed at any new TCP connection regardless of the application-level protocol." With Comcast having recently announced its intention to adjust its traffic management practices, alarm bells went off. Instead of giving up the practice of using TCP reset packets to manage BitTorrent traffic, it appeared that Comcast was doing the opposite: extending it to cover all sorts of traffic. In an official statement, Comcast said it had yet to make the announced changes
