Re: More colleges should do this

Er...most colleges already do port-block most P2P services, even at the cost of legitimate file transfers. For instance, using BT to grab a copy of OpenOffice behind the university is really a no-go (unless I like the trickle of ~2kbps!).

Its the university's network, and so its their rules as to how users can access the internet.
