Yes and the cable companies are screaming bloody murder about it. They are starting to establish bandwidth limits to stop exactly that. They are using the excuse that it has to do with piracy or infrastructure limits and thats just bull. Ask them about all the dark fiber laying in the ground that has never even been turned on other than for testing and it has been in the ground since the 70's. There is enought bandwidth capacity in this country for everyone and I mean everyone to have a 100 megabit connection and still it would not even be 1/5th the way full.
They can talk that crap to people who never had family memebers who not only laid that fiber in the ground, but had top secret security clearances and worked in Bell Labs for thirty years.
