It's bad enough that ISPs attempt to limit how much you use your connection. It is simply not acceptable for ISPs to then start policing what type of connections you make. |
I doubt they could anyway. For one, it is actually quite difficult to block some programs (IIRC MSN messenger is particularly good at changing to different ports if the normal one is blocked), and for another thing, all these programs DO have a legitimate use, so NTL may find themselves in a bit of trouble if they do block them.
