Re: What's the point of getting around traffic shaping? said by Bill:If people start downloading at full speed again, what's the point? The ISP will probably just put a monthly usage cap on the service. Now you're back to the same place you started before encryption... Encryption makes no nevermind to me...
I apply a "fairness" algorithm to all my subs. It is set up so that if the bandwidth is available with few users, then you can go for it. As the number of users increases, the bandwidth to the heavy users is throttled back so everyone has "fair access". When the number of users gets low again, speeds for heavy users go back up.
Something like this:

Doesn't matter if it is unencrypted or not, P2P, FTP or anything else...it is done "bit by bit", so to speak.
