If you want to make a property argument, how do you explain them  
denying me my right to enjoy my rental of their property?

If Comcast were a landlord, they would be interfering with my quiet  
enjoyment and my rights in possession.

Interfering with my traffic rather than blocking it, could lose them  
common carrier protection.  They are exerting editorial control, in a  
fashion, over what I transmit and receive.
