Comcast Blocks BitTorrent File Sharing

Comcast, the nation’s second largest internet provider takes traffic shaping to a new level by blocking BitTorrent uploads of full files. Comcast for a time denied doing it but thanks to Peter Svensson of the Associated Press it is now official. He tried to send the public domain Gutenberg version of the King James Bible which is only 4.24MB and Comcast blocked even this tiny file.
