If nothing else, it would force ISPs to do layer 4 shaping, which is

What an attitude. These people work hard trying to provide a good
service, and this is the thanks they get.

Try saying something like that to your waiter next time.


Amen Mike, on this we agree.


I think there's a difference between waiters and ISPs. I've never had a waiter serve my meal late because he doesn't like serving it.

Not analogous. Your ISP is not refusing you service, nor is he delaying
packets which you own.

Why is it legitimate for an ISP to sell you a link of a given bandwidth, and then tell you how you can use it?

They don't sell you a link of a given bandwidth and then tell you
how you can use it. They license you to use *their* equipment, and
then tell you how you can use *their* equipment. And you *agree*
to the terms when you sign up to use *their* equipment.
