Honestly, I did not understand the sarcasm. It had been a long day ..

contentious: causing or likely to cause an argument; controversial. "a contentious issue" For example, expecting VM to increase network capacity to accommodate illegal downloads.

Seems straightforward to me ..

How should I know? I am just highlighting an issue. Seems unfair to mandate that when someone highlights an issue they must also provide a solution. Just because there is no solution does not mean there is no problem.

Let me make this clear: people can do what they want on their connection. It is none of my business. I could not care less. However, when you are paying for a high speed internet connection and you are unable to use services like Netflix, NOW TV, etc (which I also pay for) and a contributory factor in this slowdown (if you believe the reports) is the bandwidth used by illegal downloads then this is annoying ..

I am not sure there is much interest debating this subject so lets draw a line under it. It is what it is ..
