Re: upload speed decreases

In saturated areas there is throttling, but it's a blanket throttle for all non time sensitive information. They do not target P2P traffic specifically.

People post about a lot of things. It doesn't mean there's a lick of truth to their speculation.

It also doesn't mean someone is being paranoid :P

He might be in one of the saturated areas. Upload suddenly dropping speed in half suggests throttling, or node being too full...And if they throttle uploads for nodes being full, then it stands to reason he's probably being throttled .

That was not what he was implying... nor blatantly stating. Regardless, I agree with you completely on the latter part, though those are not the only potential causes.
