			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So, here we are, today is the day! The day when I cannot download anything from P2P websites. I didn&#8217;t now that a company like Rogers can do this to its customers but it seams that they can. I tried to download a small piece of program, which is also free anyway, from Mininova and bang, the download speed is ZERO! </p>
<p>Reading now within dozens of articles / replays on the internet I see that the big fight again the internet users of P2P websites got fired up on all the Internet providers networks not only with Canadian providers like Bell and Rogers but in United States too, where we got used to believe that is the absolute freedom. </p>
<p>So, Mr. Engelhart&#8217;s statement that Rogers customers are happy is dead wrong. How can you be happy when your internet connection is filtered and you don&#8217;t have access to all resources of the web? Isn&#8217;t it supposed to be the Prime Minister who protects Canadians from this sort of abuse instead of defending monopolistic corporations as he has been doing since he got into office? </p>
<p>Who gave to Rogers the right to look in my packets?<br />
Rogers job is to get my packets to and from my house to the internet as fast as possible without looking beyond the headers. </p>
<p>Have they not been upgrading their networks to keep up with demand as they are talking about network congestion? Is the money Rogers spent on infrastructure and such, sufficient to sustain the threshold if it does get congested? If it is, why is Rogers throttling necessary? If we have Rogers and Bell as our only choices, where is the free market? How can we make a free choice?</p>
<p>These are questions with no answer and clearly I&#8217;m not expecting nothing. Canada is a country with NO competition and the CRTC (Canadian Radio-television Telecommunications Commission) apparently aided Rogers in stamping out the competition. </p>
<p>After all, what for 10MB/sec download speed limit or the 60GB bandwidth? It&#8217;s worthless. I will likely get down to the basic package. At list I&#8217;ll save my money. </p>
