But broadband providers such as Comcast, AT&T Inc. and Verizon Communications Inc. argue that after spending billions of dollars on their networks, they should be able to manage their systems so that high-bandwidth applications such as BitTorrent don't hog capacity and slow the network for everyone else.
They are basically selling bandwidth that they do not have... and complain if their stupid business model doesn't work, because people have the nerves to actually use the bandwidth that was assured to them in their contracts. Now that is a prime example of a twisted understanding of liability/justice.
