Interestingly it would be easy to write some code that detected THIS code. Get web developers to add it to their sites and make it show a message that comcast are charging them for traffic they're causing. And then link to the class action.
inject.ly isn't registered (yet) so let's presume some enterprising HN reader uses that.
As a web dev, all I need to do is <script src="//inject.ly/detect.js"></script> and it will detect this (and any future variant) ISP injected content.
Extra points for someone implementing this to have it optionally make a JS call to another function or inject a customisable HTML widget on the page.
