Im from blackpool & the new traffic management times dont make any sense to me.

why are they trailing them without telling us? with the experiment we are currently blind, and when they implement it, we will no longer be blind and therefore the results drawn from the experiment will no longer be cogent because people will alter their downloading appropriately.

I just started downloading at 9:03 and immediately i got traffic managed. i had downloaded quite a lot before 9 but stopped before i got managed. i dont think they stop the traffic management policy quite at 9 o'clock.... like any company they want to get the most money they can by manipulating the situation as much as possible. i won't be renewing my contract.
