Re "they aren't telling"

said by TFA :
How much of the traffic on the internet is peer-to-peer file trading? Everyone seems to agree it represents a lot of the traffic, but the truth is no one knows (with the possible exception of the ISPs and backbone providers in the middle, and they aren't telling or sharing raw data).
Of course they are not telling. If they did then their argument for throttling P2P would collapse. Now that would be very "telling"

And BTW guess who owns a stake in Ellacoya? »www.ellacoya.com/news/pdf/2005/E···ding.pdf
