I've got Comcast, and I can log in. But it would probably save me money if I couldn't. [censored] Bodog.

Re: Bodog Blocked by Comcast Internet!
I can't log in. I'm on Comcast. Says "your current account status doesn't allow you access to the poker room," or something like that. And gives the email for security at Bodog. Not sure if this is the same thing.

Re: Bodog Blocked by Comcast Internet!
In the "Land of The Last Mile" the war to end all wars has begun. Local telephone companies, cable companies, wireless companies, satellite broadcast systems, long distance carriers, and even electric utilities are locked in a death struggle to provide telephone, television, and other telecom services to residences and small businesses. The phone company wants to provide me with television and the cable company wants to be my telephone company. Everyone is trying to grab everyone else's business. The very survival of Comcast and all the other combatants is at stake and they know it.
I don't especially like Comcast but they seem to be focused and pretty well run. Certainly I have no doubt that they are all about the money. I refuse to believe that they are needlessly provoking valuable customers by spending their technical resources on a vigilante campaign to cutoff online gamblers. Spend money to pay engineers and operations staff to antagonize customers who will call customer care (that's more money) and they quite possibly switch to competing telephone company or direct broadcast satellite services!? It's not just broadband ISP business they stand to lose here. In many areas they will lose the cable TV business and their chance to play telephone company. Even the wireless phone service may be resold by the phone company on a unified billing statement. That could easily add up to $2000/year for an ordinary household. Not going to happen until someone passes a clear law requiring them to do it and maybe not even then. This is a technical snafu. Someone screwed up and it sucks but it is not the beginning of some nefarious campaign to cutoff online poker or even Bodog. |
