No my litmus test for whether or not something is a utility is whether or not people can functionally survive in our society without it. This is about television, not internet. Nobody has brought evidence that this app blocks people who are using Comcast internet, but a different HBO GO account. 

So would you consider the internet a utility then? If so why should an internet provider be allowed to block content on speciic devices? Especially if that internet provider is also a content creator.

ps3 and ps4 have no cable access just internet. While it is access to a telivision app through the internet, it is still internet.

The content isn't blocked. You can still download the HBO GO app. You can't log in with your comcast account though. The question is whether or not a Comcast telivision subscription which includes HBO will work.
