Comcast got blamed but they weren't the guilty party. And every blog and news outlet has kept quiet about this because it goes against the agenda for net neutrality that is going to ultimately result in the government controlling what websites we can visit.

If you want anything to be "free" then keep the damn government out of it. And please, research more and stop grabbing the low-hanging fruit of blaming Comcast for everything. Finally, point to be made, even on the slowest speed account you can EASILY play WoW or any other MMO just fine, you just can't simultaneously stream videos and download bittorrents also...if you want that then purchase more pipe by going to a higher tier service.
Thank you for your clear argument of why Net Neutrality is absolutely necessary...

Wait, that's not what you're arguing? And your reasoning is that it was some other private entity intentionally throttling speeds, so that means we don't need regulation? Okay...
