Submitted a Slashdot Story
I submitted a Slashdot story this morning, after seeing that nobody else had posting anything about the story that ran in this past weekend's Globe and Mail about Rogers thinking about hiking rates for high-bandwidth users.

I wouldn't mind so much, but Rogers seems to be throttling back service in other areas. I got an email from a colleague over the weekend saying that in his area, Rogers is killing sockets for passive ftp connections after a few minutes. They also changed things so that I can no longer use my handy Linux router to network our Internet connection throughout the house. If there is a rate hike, I really hope Rogers offers more in the way of services that high-bandwidth users like myself would appreciate, instead of just charging more for less... (Likely a forlorn hope, I know).
