The University of Colorado at Boulder is reporting that Comcast has
shifted from inserting "forged" reset packets solely to disrupt P2P
traffic, to algorithms that can disrupt a wide range of traffic,
apparently irrespective of protocol, including potentially e-mail
and Web browsing.  

If verified, this suggests that instead of developing a sensible
traffic management policy, Comcast may have simply extended their
disruptive reset strategy more generally. 

First-hand reports or other additional info on this are welcome.
