Bell Canada trying to edge out the (not-so-little) little guys
August 7th, 2008 by Michael Zimmermann

Bell Canada is moving to limit other ISPs from offering a useful alternative to bandwidth-shaping and a future of usage charges. The throttling that they inflict on their own users is trickling down to other ISPs like Teksavvy, reducing them to the role of Sympatico resellers, essentially. This means Bell, not the ISP, can control many of the usage policies and offerings.
