Comments on: Comcast denies monkeying with BitTorrent traffic

Rumors have been floating around that Comcast is filtering peer-to-peer BitTorrent traffic, which is often used to distribute pirated movies.

Liars

I just ran a Speedtest speed test with some torrents running. I got
.48 Mb/s down and .06 Mb/s up. When I stopped the torrents and
reran the test, I got 14.35 Mb/s down and 1.18 Mb/s up. My
torrents are upload capped at 70 Kb/s and nothing was
downloading at the time. They obviously throttle my bandwidth, so
I just pause the torrents while I'm surfing.

Possible Action to Protect Consumers

Greetings. My name is Brian Weinthal and I am an attorney here in Washington, D.C. I am currently examining certain practices allegedly employed by Comcast with regard to its high-speed cable internet service. Specifically, I am trying to connect with Washington, D.C. residents who have experienced difficulties using peer-to-peer file-sharing protocols (BitTorrent, Gnutella, Lotus Notes, FTP, etc.) since subscribing to Comcast's high-speed internet service. The popular name for this practice is "throttling," and it occurs when an ISP intentionally delays or blocks certain P2P transfers in order to regulate its network. If you are a DC resident who has experienced this problem (or, if you know of a DC resident who has), please do not hesitate to contact me at [phone] or at [e-mail].
