We trust in government to set rules and punish rulebreakers. When that is not true, do we enact punishment ourselves? Results would be not pretty.
- landemva 3y agoIf your ISP determines there is a botnet from your home IP and you refuse their request to fix it, then it seems appropriate for your ISP to take action or "enact punishment".
- ClumsyPilot 3y agoOkay, let look at the reverse situation If my ISP charges me for 100 mbps but provides 10, can I enact punishment without government interfering and protecting ISP from my punishment?
- landemva 3y agoUsing rule of law and courts, it depends on your contract. Many residential providers have service as a best effort. Guaranteed service with penalties are typically possible, if you are willing to pay significantly more.
- ClumsyPilot 3y agoThis is textbook definition of hypocrisy. ISP does whatever they want without any qualifiers about contract and without any need to go to court.n
