Comcast has a history of covertly hacking their customers

For months Comcast did TCP reset attacks on their own customers. Third party telecommunications packet sequences were intercepted, then tampered with. After intercepting third party data, Comcast forged packets, then injected said forged packets into the original data sequence. Their injected packet was an automatic denial of service packet. It was injected at the beginning of third-party packet sequences. After injected at the beginning of the sequence, Comcast’s injected packet was then analyzed by Comcast’s customer’s firewalls. Said injected malicious RST Comcast packets were then the sole reason why Comcast provided firewalls denied other following lawful third party packet sequences. RST reset packets instantly kill the TCP connection. So as soon as their customers received the first COMCAST INJECTED packet , it automatically ended the packet flow.

Like a true hacker, Comcast schemed, executed, then lied about wrongdoings

While Comcast was blocking lawful packet sequences, in the background they promoted competitive products and services! After months of Comcast denials supporting evidence posted by the Associated Press, EFF, and Wired proved Comcast maliciously blocked lawful data flow. Like a black hat malicious actor they forged packets and sent them to customers. Some of the forged packets were from BitTorrent, IBM's Lotus Note, Gnutella, and other lawful competitive & non-competitive applications.

See this independent investigation from a concerned consumer who helped IBM customer support figure out who was blocking the IBM Lotus Note web application.

In 2008, The FCC voted, 3-2, to punish Comcast for its surreptitious interference.

Ruling on a complaint by Free Press and Public Knowledge as well as a petition for declaratory ruling, the Commission concluded that Comcast has unduly interfered with Internet users’ right to access the lawful Internet content and to use the applications of their choice. Specifically, the Commission found that Comcast had deployed equipment throughout its network to monitor the content of its customers’ Internet connections and selectively block specific types of connections.

We must unite to Save Net Neutrality to protect emerging technology

Comcast's blocking wreaked havoc. After researching that time’s emerging technologies, I have concluded that great innovation was occurring — much like the great innovation we are currently seeing around the blockchain space. Instead of supporting new innovation, ISP dinosaurs of the past — like Comcast — have historically attempted to monopolize industries instead. They do not want the next generation of technology to succeed.

Halting innovation is UnAmerican. A comparable act would be me saying, "No, you can't listen to AM because I have a station on FM" or if I was a telephone provider and I said, “No you can’t call that number because they're something competitive to my other products.” Emerging technologies were shadow banned just for existing. It’s no small matter, Comcast had roughly 11 million high-speed internet customers in 2006. They monopolized millions of US internet users. They turned customers into personal cash cows and covertly eliminated competitors access to those people. They took it upon themselves to decide what technology was allowed to be used. Their actions may have cost competitors millions. How would you feel if you weren't allowed to market your emerging blockchain project to millions of US internet users?

Blockchain technology has a good chance of disrupting the traditional ISP's business model. Some blockchain models could be vulnerable without Net Neutrality laws in place. Think about what it would be like if you had this world changing blockchain innovation and you weren't allowed to share it to millions of internet users. Its anti capitalist, anti free market, and UnAmerican! I personally believe that the Koch brothers are massively funding the GOP in 2018 so they have the best chance possible of removing laws that protect consumers and emerging technology. They're planning on investing $400 million dollars in trying protect Republican majorities and promoting "policy priorities."

What can we do to Save Net Neutrality?

Fight for the future is hosting an online protest. It's February 27th. If you are a blockchain enthusiast, it would be wise to participate by sharing/tweeting this post, creating your own protest content, or using this form to contact your elected officials. See my Twitter account or Fight For The Future's official twitter account for ideas and updates.
