Rogers says its Internet interference is necessary, but minimal

Rogers Communications is defending its control over the flow of Internet traffic as necessary but light-handed, amid growing complaints from users and the threat of intervention by regulators. The Toronto-based company, Canada's second largest Internet service provider with 1.5 million high-speed customers, said its interference with how subscribers are using their connections is limited to slowing down the upload speeds of peer-to-peer applications such as BitTorrent. Rogers also said it does not throttle download speeds, block any applications or use a network management method called "false resets," which some companies, including Comcast Corp., the largest U.S. service provider, use to trick Internet connections into dropping when peer-to-peer traffic is detected.
