Comcast In Secret War With Bit Torrent Seeders

[GhostShip]

This news is very troubling as it basically show Comcast are acting in an undehand and potentially illegal way by disrupting BT seeding across its network.

Last week we reported that Comcast is making it impossible for its customers to seed files on BitTorrent. Not surprisingly, Comcast’s PR department does all it can to deny there allegations, but we - and with us some of the leading BitTorrent developers - know better.

So who’s right here? The hundreds of people that seem to have the same seeding problem, or the Comcast spokesman Charlie Douglas, who denies that Comcast is monkeying with BitTorrent bandwidth. Apparently Comcast want people to believe the latter, even though all evidence points in the other direction. Decide for yourself.

Moxie, a Comcast customer who replied to a post on Silicon Alley, points out that when you log your network activity with an application like Wireshark, you’ll notice that Comcast servers start sending reset messages as soon as a download is finished, exactly as we described it.

Luckily there is a fix for this problem, and we know that at least two BitTorrent client developers are including this fix in their next update.

Why are these companies always seeking to alienate their customers, is this something to do with Comcast being a partner with one of the big 4 Medai cartel groups ?

doing underhand things, lying about it, and pretending you are being honest and open... sounds familiar
