eventually what is going to happen is that the big movie and music companies are going to put so much pressure on the government that they will force ISP's to block torrents all together

I am already seeing comcast's solution first hand (article)...I run a torrent site with independent electronic artists, all the music is legal and allowed to be freely distributed....comcast is now throttling my internet usage when it detects I am seeding torrents

IN FACT, i had shitloads of internet issues this past weekend, I could barely stay online...I called comcast and they said nothing was wrong....I shut down my torrent seeding software, rebooted my modem and everything has worked fine since

it pisses me off because I am seeding legal torrents, but because of all the thieves I have to suffer
