no bandwidth starvation at the ISP level. This is very heartening. At least until more details come out.

Dinesh, my son works in tech support for an isp in central California, and he says they lost a lot of bandwidth. It may be a bigger concern than we think.

Why can't they just simply program in anti flooding into their sites? Simple.... For example... Take a look at Java Chat...Just try to flood one of those and you'll immediately be kicked out of the chat. Easy fix...
