torrentfreak.com — ISPs have been throttling BitTorrent traffic for years now, but only recently this turned into a political issue. The BitTorrent client Azureus has now developed a plugin through which you can help distinguishing the good from the bad ISPs, data they will use to strengthen their argument in the ongoing Comcast debate.

If uTorrent was OSS, it would be the most killer app out there, at least for downloading torrents. Wait, it still is ;)

Yes, but if Azureus and uTorrent get together to implement this, then they can gather information that all torrent users will benefit from.

That's a pretty bad typo. Seems you spelt "MrViklund's Opinion" "Utorrent".Also, for the record, it's μTorrent.

Yep. Good points, both.

Teredo does seem to help with combating the throttling and my speeds hit max in one second I have noticed since I started using it.

Running socks/SSH on the remote machine it'll be less obvious what you're doing.

That's only true if you live underground, you cheap bastard. Satellite broadband is always an option. So is broadband through your wireless phone carrier.
