Comcast Settles Class Action Lawsuit, Will Compensate Throttled BitTorrent Users

A couple of years back Comcast gained some bad press for throttling BitTorrent traffic on their network while pretending they were doing no such thing. After several reports confirming the throttling and a leaked memo, the FCC ordered them to stop. A few class action lawsuits later, and Comcast has put $16 million dollars into a fund to pay back users they swindled with their BitTorrent throttling. [TorrentFreak]
