Remember a year or so ago, Con-Cast had a BS policy about how your
"unlimited" internet wasn't so according to their double secret
probation policy that claimed only a certain nebulous undisclosed
amount of usage was acceptable?  Only the threat of endless bad
publicity and boycott websites and class action lawsuits brought them
to see the light.  Of course now, we hear how Comcast is behind the
Texas legislation to limit cities from providing services because that
would hurt old Con-Cast.  Screw them.
