@naugamonster a personal request: please hold yourself back from “helping” on any more of my Fluthers.
You seem to have not grasped my intent. I wasn’t trying to help you, I was correcting the nonsense that you were propagating. I will agree not to try to help you though – if that makes you happy.
As for your link, they are NOT similar privacy invasions, they have not relationship to your preposterous claim that Comcast can live monitor a customer’s display screen. Among other things, as well needing a local install of complex software, that would require a huge amount of back-Chanel bandwidth, more than running 24/7 Skype video or similar.
Don’t you think things through in a logical fashion? Imagine the size of the bills if you ran Skype video non-stop. Comcast couldn’t meet the bandwidth requirements. Even if it was legally and technically possible, the increased network infrastructure requirements in attempting it would bankrupt them for no reason.
All they can do is log your web adventures. If you log onto a page, if they really wanted to, they could log onto the same page and see what you were viewing. That is the extent of it.
BTW, I wasn’t helping you, once again I was correcting you. In reality, if you really don’t want opinion – then don’t ask for it.
