Comcast's Crossed Wires (ISP piracy police, mistaken identity)

[admin]

We’ve heard cases like these before, where customers are assumed guilty until proven innocent. Fortunately, John knows a bit about networking and helped Comcast discover their “alleged infringement” error. As it turns out, the offending cable modem, identified by hardware MAC address, was no longer in his possession. Having been redeployed by Comcast after he moved.

Right, yet another reason I hate Comcast!

And thankfully their competitor over here doesn't sell out to The Man. I don't think they watch anybody for any reason, under any circumstance.

I say unfortunately they all will in the end a sad but true fact.
