said by beatsnpieces  :Wow, 22 whole Cogeco users were in this study, such a large cross section.../endsarcasm Oh, look, it's sarcasm... I guess low-brow 'humour' is making a comeback.
Went on to read the PDF since I find this topic interesting, as I haven't been able to seed worth shit for a while now...
a) 22 users is a large sample set considering this was a *beta* test of the plugin and we're talking about testing on a global scale.
b) Expect this number to grow as this information is becoming public, especially with the aid of Michael Geist's blog which has a very large audience. I've already seen a few facebook notes posted to his blog entry on Cogeco, so expect this knowledge to grow as well.
c) Why don't you test it, and see for yourself? |

It's not that sample size that is important. its the fact that a 3rd party confirmed what we all suspected, that Cogeco throttles p2p (and who knows what else). And why don't we know for sure? Because Cogeco won't tell anybody what they are doing to the data you transmit over the network. |
