I agree. It's little different from an e-mail, and the reason they don't use e-mail is because people tend to ignore those e-mails. It's merely an alert to let you know you are approaching your threshold, because once you exceed your threshold you will incur additional usage fees. You can also pay for unlimited bandwidth and then you will never see these banners.

You do understand the constitution only limits government activities, not the activities of private companies with whom you choose to do business, right?

It has nothing to do with piracy or BitTorrent, and everything to do with Ryan nearing his data threshold (it's not technically a cap).

You, my friend, are a complete, utterly stupid idiot.

I really do not think it is a big deal. Sure, they can do it, but they aren't harming your computer or taking any info. They are displaying a notice that may or may not be helpful, depending on who they ask. Other ISPs have been adding banner ads using a SQUID proxy, so in comparison it isn't really that bad. I sure don't mind. It is a bit annoying, but nothing that would make me go like "THIS IS UNCONSTITUTIONAL AND IT IS GONNA VIOLATE MY RIGHTS AND OMG THATS SO RACIST OMG OMG OMG SO BAD OMG!!!!111!one!!2"

Just calm down people

This is totally unconstitutional and illegal!!!!
Just take a look at this post:
http://www.reddit.com/r/tec...

Someone pointed out this website that discusses comcast's illegal activity:
http://tech.slashdot.org/st...

Now all of the sudden if you go to the page it no longer exists, and it takes me to a comcast landing page that states:

"Sorry we are experiencing technical issues.

Please click here to refresh this page.

If the problem persists, please call 1-800-COMCAST (1-800-266-2278) and reference AUPM Service Notice."

Other sources are not able to load this page at all now, but you can still look this site up by finding the google cached version.

This is beyond unconstitutional, this violates at least a dozen laws, and not to mention the First Amendment!!!!

How are they getting away with this?! They are almost as bad as the Chinese government. This has to stop! Private corporations should never be able to sensor or monitor anyone, ever!!!!

No clue. The guy started posting my name and email (On no!) on HN saying people should contact me if they have any problems. He then proceeded to get ridiculed by the rest of the HN community for the way he handled it.

Say, what became of these hooligans? I was dumb enough to sign on, but now it seems that iceboxpro.com is history. I guess one of these days I'll have to figure out how to access Glacier the good, old-fashioned way.

This. As long as they don't have your private key or the server's private key, HTTPS is perfectly safe to man-in-the-middle attacks.
