Major internet providers, including AT&T, Time Warner and
Verizon, are slowing data from popular websites to thousands of
US businesses and residential customers in dozens of cities
across the country, according to a study released on Monday. The
study, conducted by internet activists BattlefortheNet, looked at
the results from 300,000 internet users and found significant
degradations on the networks of the five largest internet service
providers (ISPs), representing 75% of all wireline households
across the US.
