Each to their own, people can believe whatever they wnat to believe however a fair few sources have even contacted me and also admitted its being run

Interestingly STM is in talks about being removed on lower tiers when this is implemented.

Alright then, more of a different choice of words shall we say.

My point is, they say ALLOT is only used for other things, when infact its already used on the ADSL part of the network for shaping, it's not a direct lie but it's hardly the truth either as VM were asked about both adsl/cable.
