Is it affecting business DSL customers, or just home? I thought it was just home? Also, I thought it was only affecting torrent download ports, and not straight http/https/ftp ports?

Either way, if Bell's backbone was that stressed today with the file sharing going on, what will it be like with the next gen of VOIP, video, teleconferencing, etc.?

To me, they should have employed a more customer conscious QOS than straight up throttling, they wouldn't be in this mess.
