I'd be rather surprised if they can spot P2P traffic, but not determine which torrent is being transferred. BB On 11/13/10 7:35 PM, der Mouse wrote:

In fact, I would be extremely tempted, were I in such a situation, to find a sympathetic band, write up and sign a sutable agreement with the band, and then share their music. Sort of the converse of a sting. /~\ The ASCII Mouse \ / Ribbon Campaign X Against HTML mouse () rodents-montreal org / \ Email! 7D C8 61 52 5D E7 2D 39 4E F1 31 3E E8 B3 27 4B _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
