Comcast: Our BitTorrent busting is 'best in class'
FCC probe? What FCC probe?

Just weeks after the US Federal Communications Commission said it
would investigate claims that Comcast was surreptitiously throttling
P2P file-sharing traffic, the mega American ISP has issued new terms
of service, telling customers it likes to practice "reasonable network
management".

These terms of service seem to mirror a footnote to the FCC's 2005
Internet Policy Statement - a bit of government wisdom Comcast has
used time and again to justify its BitTorrent busting.
