They've slapped a 250 gig/month usage limit on all residential customers. Two "offenses" in a sixth month period results in a year's suspension of service.
As my fellow TSE posters know, my reaction to an outrage like this would typically include a call for mass graves for relevant parties, but it should be noted that my hope for such is highly unnecessary in this case, since Comcast seems to be digging their own quite capably.
Between Verizon and AT&T, there's plenty of DSL to go around no matter where you live. FIOS and Elite give respectable performance, but most of all you actually get to use the bandwidth that you are paying for.

Bloomberg accidentally publishes Steve Jobs' obituary
Bloomberg committed a journalistic faux pas by inadvertently publishing their on-file obituary of Apple co-founder Steve Jobs. Apparently somebody was trying to update it but somehow managed to publish it instead--sounds like their system needs a little idiotproofing. It has since been retracted, but you can read the obit here. This incident comes amid speculation that Jobs' health has been waning over recent months due to an alleged recurrence of pancreatic cancer. The article touches on some extensive career highlights for Apple and Jobs and I think that both Apple fanboys and Apple haters can agree that Jobs has influenced the tech industry profoundly for better or worse.
