Re: Unfiltered, unlimited?!?

Latency is the issue.
I know connecting to Skype across a throttled VPN, tunnelled SSH throught a squid proxy half way across the country is enough to make it unusable. The throttled connection makes latency spikes too high to be usable.

What about the server running its own DNS Server? or caching DNS entries? Wouldn't this speed it up?

Who says that they would want to.
Easiest way is to limit the pipe. 512 kbps with high latency should be enough to keep most people from wanting to run VoIP or similar.
