| | Comcast Throttles Bit-Torrents, Abandons Net Neutrality | permalink #1 | |
| Tweak3D Webmaster | If you're a frequent bit-torrent user and subscriber of Comcast high-speed Internet, you may have recently noticed issues with upload speeds that make seeding nearly impossible. Quote:
My Internet seems fine so far, but I don't use torrents frequently. How about you? | ||

| Dangerous | torrentspy.com banned all USA users from their site and it has been taking forever to download/upload crap on other torrent sites. Last edited by 86mcss; 08-29-2007 at 02:29 PM. | |

The only real solution I see to this is to create a custom UDP protocol based network with custom packets. Then really their systems wouldn't know what you were doing, just sending data. You could use encrypted data packets as well, but I am not sure if that fixes the problem. Torrentspy blocked searches from america because they got rammed in the butt by the government saying they had to hand over their data on what people search, like ip address and things they searched for. It is best for the community. | ||
