Hi Jeff – I noticed the question posed here so thought I’d respond, perhaps at risk of stirring up a hornet’s nest 
given how long the last thread was. ;-) Anyway… there’s no congestion between Comcast and Level 3 connections, and 
we’re working collaboratively with Level 3.  Given these facts, we have no reason to believe that Comcast is on their 
list.

"...I’d love to see Cogent, Google and other providers release their data next, so even if the FCC doesn’t want to 
pursue this, a growing cry of consumer outrage could push the agency to do something about a very real and difficult 
problem that’s crippling access to video content on 5 U.S. broadband networks. Level 3 didn’t name names, but based on 
the deals Netflix has signed and the complaints it has made about AT&T, I’m confident that AT&T, Verizon and Comcast 
are among the five. "
