Re: Interesting...

'Packet shaping' technology has been implemented for newsgroup applications, regardless of the provider, and all peer-to-peer networks and certain other high bandwidth applications not necessarily limited to audio, video, and voice over IP telephony.

You may want to read what they said again. From the above it looks like they have implemented it on applications that are audio, video, and VOIP. In addition, they have left it open to anything else they may want to do it to.

Sounds like a net neturality issue to me.

I was only mentioning that I have seen my own torrents beat up, whereas newsgroups remain smoking fast. So as far as I can tell, for my ISP, I guess they're differentiating between torrent traffic from other data, including newsgroups.

Yea, and VoIP is not a "high bandwidth" application...quite the contrary. That one sounds more like a competitive play to me...
