From the article:

'Clement said that hotels limit speeds to restrict peer-to-peer downloading, and suggested that universities do the same. “I don’t think it would be the end of the world if universities provided service at a speed that was sufficient for most other purposes but didn’t allow the students to take full advantage of BitTorrent,” he said. “I could live in that world."'

Insane. So Sony's lawyer is arguing that every university student should have sub-broadband internet speeds simply because a small fraction of the students infringes copyright.

You can alter the rate of transmission for different types of traffic. This is one of the benefits of the packet system. For example, if you wanted to rate limit peer-to-peer connections but not peer-to-giant-corporation connections, all you'd have to do is modify the QoS settings on your router. You can do this at home.

That statement just shows he either doesn’t know what he’s talking about or is playing dumb.

He's towing the line of whoever is filling his pockets.
