Furthermore, Suddenlink's customer service people are asking specifically if we used any streaming sites like Youtube, Amazon or Netflix.
@Chuxtaposed: Your ISP rate-limiting these sort of sites is EXACTLY why we need Net Neutrality. Â The term itself was coined when ISPs started limiting based on types of service, apps, etc. Â The entire effort is to keep ISPs from throttling your traffic like Comcast did to p2p and ftp streams back in 2007. Â Net Neutrality means that your ISP has to treat ALL of your IP traffic equally without regard to port or protocol above layer 3 of the OSI model.
Suddenlink's customer service is just regurgitating the lies their management are telling them. Â They are blaming a regulation that governs how they cannot be turds to their customers instead of owning their own greed for charging you more for their services.Source: Â Pay my bills as a senior network architect/design engineer for an international company.
