big difference between that and STM. comcast are injecting packets to stop people from seeding torrents, STM doesn't *stop* traffic or modify it

when i've been STM'd i havent had any lost packets or anything that suddenly stops working, comcast aren't just not delivering packets, they actually send packets that cause the client to stop seeding. now i'm sure you'll tell me VM do that
