Yesterday, the FCC ruled that Comcast's network management practices that specifically targeted BitTorrent users, were unfair. The ruling is a small victory for Net Neutrality, but it wont stop ISPs from going after the heavy bandwidth users, not at all.

Comcast was ordered to stop slowing down BitTorrent users before the end of the year. In addition, the company has to disclose all "network managing" practices.
