Photon+ Speeds

Posted: 08 Jan 2012 03:09 AM PST

Iam not sure the problem is with Tata photon plus CDMA usb data card or Tata Indicom braodband ADSL wired internet.

For photon they have 1800 no and you can connect to the tech stop very easily.

Then they will walk you through to how to delete the old settings and create a new profile.

photon speeds sucks but many time I have spoken to tech support for free and have obtained solution.

no need to email and wait for an answer and keep writing here.

Well not really..the question of "Crime" or "penalty" would arise only if I can establish that I suffered a damage due to your downloading of the same. In the case of copying a post and all there is no financial damage and hence no penalty.

To establish the nature and extent of damage and sufficient compensation for the same has however, to be decided by the court.

hmm from what i have read of copyright amendment act 2010 it has a good deal of scope and is very fair regarding fair use, personal use and DRM issues i just hope the govt passes it so this becomes clear .IT act is too broad and not applicable i can claim copy right on this post as chromaniac pointed out and ask for damages and lastly again an isp cannot throttle own it's own even if if we take IT act someone has to complain to subscriber 1st then let law handle it and any lawyer worth his salt would be it copyright issue and drag it a civil court for 25 years for 10k !!

but i would also like to have an opinion on this directly from a lawyer.
I have already replied to Chromaniac's post, on why copying a post would not be a violation of the Act.

I am not aware of the provisions of copy right act (but i will do some research once I get some time), so I cant really say anything on that.

These laws are all at the nascent stages in India, and would require years of enforcing and 100's of court rulings and clarifications, before they become clearer. There are loop holes in decades old Acts like Income tax act and all, so we can imagine what a skillful lawyer could do with the IT Act :)

From what I understand, i agree with you, it is none of the ISP's job to enforce these rules. The violation if any, has to be raised in court by the owner of the work, and compensation is to be worked under court's direction.
