  interesting that Comcast immediately directs the user to delete the file and doesn't even list an option to counter the claim. The trolls are constantly looking and probing for a weak spot, and with high probability they have just found another one - large stupid ISPs like Comcast. Now they only need to scare Comcast into automating the disconnections YouTube style and/or collecting the small settlement fee under the threat of disconnection (or for reconnection) and bingo - perpetuum mobile of a money printing machine.

    From what I remember Comcast already has the "Sandvine" technology that automatically disconnects torrent clients. I have no idea if it is in use any longer.

      That was easily sidestepped in a Linux router by telling iptables to ignore RST,RST packets on the Bittorrent port.

    That is interesting. Does the DMCA not require the takedown notice to inform of the right to file a counter-notice? I always assumed it did because that seems to be the usual practice. I wonder if Comcast is being unusually aggressive in their interpretation/lax in their compliance or whether most companies are going beyond what is required in their takedown notices?
