Think Comcast's BitTorrent blocking is bad? At an FCC hearing at Harvard yesterday, Comcast secretly paid people to fill up seats and cheer for them.

Too bad there's a photo!! Even reporters got blocked out of the event because it was too full. When no one agrees with you, all you can do is open your wallet.

Unbelievable.
