This evidence shows Comcast is forging packets and blocking connection attempts from web browsers. One has to hope this isn't the congestion management system they are touting as <A href="http://tech.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=08/03/27/149253&tid=95">no longer targeting BitTorrent</A>, which they are deploying in reaction to the <A href="http://politics.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=08/01/08/220246&tid=95">recent FCC investigations</A>."</I></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/031D08DF-6E75-4EFB-AF4E-AC1CCDACB931/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
