This is old news I know, but my question is, as a service provider are they allowed MIM attacks like this (am I misreading this, isn't that what masquerading as the other computer your talking to and sending false data is?).

This is a great point, and one we should take up with the EFF.

The EFF Shows http://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2007/10/eff-tests-agree-ap-comcast-forging-packets-to-interfere

Perhaps we should start sending TCP RST packets to comcast's website, and billing systems... since it's clear that it's OK to forge these on their network. Anyone?
