| I love the new encryption scheme!
I love the new encryption schemes found in Utorrent and Azureus 2.4! I personally use Azurus 2.4 + Safe Peer and it's flawless for safe torrenting on the internet! I noticed a nice increase in speed on my torrents soon as I upgraded!
*note* you need to be on the exact same connection and client for the packet shaping and encryption to work.
However overall I'm VERY pleased and I can't wait for future releases.
let us use our connection how we want, and don't dodge the Fu@#$ issues rogers/shaw!!! We know you did it, and we know you lie to us, come out of the closet once and for all.

He/she doesn't want these policies to find their way to the USA.
Traffic shaping and throttling (either concurrent connections or byte caps) are not a substitute to upgrade your network. |

Something tells me you aren't in Pocono Pines, PA, nor have service from "Northwestel Cable" (a Canadian cable operator) either...

You seem to regularly have a sympathetic ear to corporations and their "draconian" policies, but if your a stockholder that would explain it all...:)
I personally would like to render any and all ISP's throttling completely ineffective through VPN, encryptions, or other methods. Nothing like making a $50,000 peice of hardware utterly worthless and letting management know they should have invested that money in decent routers, switches, and backbone gear.
That and the fact that BitTorrent being an increasingly utilized method for legitimate downloads LINK makes any companies that cap/throttle look dumb and customer unfriendly |

Re: Canada
They play hockey underground, then? Sounds fun.
Anyway, on the Shaw issue, I really hope they don't buy anymore throttling stuff and just FIX YOUR NETWORK with the money spent on that throttling thing. Maybe ebay it?

If I had to deal with Shaw on their throttling of Bit Torrent, I would be upset as well. However, how many current Shaw customers are upset about the throttling? Even more important, how many of them even notice it? You can bet the BBR users would notice it, but it is my guess that a bulk majority of the people who use Shaw don't use Bit Torrent or just don't notice it.
I am not pointing this out to be a prick. It is mainly to show that 98% of the people out there that use systems on the internet just don't use this kind of software or just won't notice. That doesn't make it right unless Shaw is coming out to say that they are throttling it. Oh wait, they are doing that so that takes care of that.
I hope those people in Shaw supported areas who like Bit Torrent have more than one broadband provider. Shaw owns the service and they have a right to provide the service as they see fit. Don't like it? Don't pay for it.

Re: I love the new encryption scheme!
He's just a troll.
In any case, rumor is he's paid by comcast to post here. (and yes, he works for comcast outside of Philly). Comcast admitted about 6 months ago on an internal memo that they have, and have had for several years, professional 'astroturfers' to try and counter the anti-comcast rhetoric that sprouts up. (sort of like what happens with walmart). Paying someone 400.00/week to try and obfuscate msg boards is an easy way to take advantage of the simple minded at low wages, and has the added benefit of amusing even the moderately intelligent people of their desperate attacks.
There's a couple of other posters who work for the bells, etc. They aren't hard to spot, as they follow the scripts their handlers give them to attempt to counter any comments that make their paid supporters look bad. Common tactics include, but are not limited to, diverting the conversation off on a tangent, blaming it on 'criminals', telling them to 'start their own isp', and the classic 'it's their lines, they paid for it'. It's sort of fun to watch them post, almost at the same level of zoo monkeys throwing feces. They don't really affect anything, but you have to grin at their antics.

Video Google and Fileplanet are two I've noticed. |

The question then becomes, "How many Shaw users play the game WOW?" I'm willing to bet it's a really high percentage (above 20%). Guess what WOW uses to deliver patches? Yup, BitTorrent. Same with many other games such as HL2 and others.
So even if you don't know your using BitTorrent, you may be using it anyway. Who knows, some users might have a hard time downloading their WOW content, and cancel service with WOW thinking it's Blizzard when it's really Shaw who is the culprit. |
