It does not make sense. They sell bandwidth and I buy it. After that, it's none of their business how I use it. I paid for it and I expect them to deliver it without interference.
They see this cash cow out there utilizing their pipes; and for some unfathomable reason, they feel they have this God given right to demand a piece of that action. WTF!
On top of that, there's also a major conflict of interest going on and it's time Congress did something about it. No one should be allowed to provide both delivery and content. With people cancelling their cable TV and relying on the internet, these ISP/cable companies are looking for creative ways to stick it to their internet only customers.
