It probably does, but they have bigger fish to fry.  I'm on Comcast and
occasionally run a co-op server for about 4 people for a maximum of about 12
hours at a time.  Games include Q2, Unreal and Doom (ports).  I've done this
over the past 5 years and haven't heard a peep from Comcast.  It doesn't
take up a lot of bandwidth.
