Comcast DMCA div injection

Post by terabit »

Greets,

Comcast apparently mounts a man-in-the-middle attack against it's users when a DMCA notice is sent against their IP.

Above is a screenshot of their HTTP man in the middle DIV injection.

The following ABP filter blocks this:

###comcast_content

Hope this gets added! cheers :)

Tip: Use HTTPS Everywhere. It should prevent entities like Comcast from modifying pages that support HTTPS like Imgur. It will also prevent them from knowing what you do on those sites.

I am using HTTPSeverywhere but some sites just don't use HTTPS since they don't host what they consider "sensitive" content.

just about every site that's HTTP

httpseverywehre fixes the problem but not every site has HTTPS. they use their position as ISP to inject content into HTTP pages without user consent (this is pretty much worse than ads , this is wiretapping+malware except a very large and powerful corporation is doing it to enforce DMCA)
