Virgin Media…
…appear to be tampering with network packets if they detect you are using a router on your network.
…are monitoring and policing the data you send through your internet connection and have begin sending threatening letters to it’s customers on behalf of the record industry; entirely of their own volition.
…believe that net neutrality is, “a load of bollocks“.
…are participating in Phorm (see here for info about Phorm).
We should boycott them. Sadly, it’s our only option as consumers. Fortunately, it’s also the language shoddy, money-grabbing companies like Virgin Media understand.
Update: The ASA have upheld complaints that advertised claims about Virgin Media’s broadband speeds are misleading.
Update: Since BT are now also on the bandwagon, my advice to anyone looking for an internet connection would be to get a BT phone line but go with 3rd party broadband. I’m currently with Be and I can definitely recommend them.
