Comment Re:The Censorship Tag (Score 1) 239
It is a form of censorship as it limits access to information based solely on the protocol used to exchange that information. They are not "prioritizing their traffic", they are actively preventing consumers from exercising the freedom of protocol and bandwidth for which they have already paid. And the introduction of a $/MB payment scheme is IMO an underhanded attack against the freedom of the less economically advantaged. We have been sold the internet on the basis of freedom of information and access, and in cases such as this the ISPs are failing to honour our service agreements - they should be held accountable.
