2. Some ISPs, especially in the US, _do_ restrict BitTorrent
In some cases, it's a layer 3 limiter which can be evaded by
shifting ports. In other cases it's a layer 4 limiter which usually
cannot be evaded by shifting ports, and may or may not be evaded by
encrypted clients.
If that's the case, take your business elsewhere and make sure to
let the former ISP know why you're leaving them.
If I were your ISP, I'd be glad to see your backside.
This attitude is part of why I said I'm philosophicaly opposed to
BitTorrent.
Why? Properly done, it doesn't make their data traffic any worse, in
fact less "peaky". I'm seeding both the cd's and the dvd of FC5 right

Untrue. Are you claiming to be a load balancing expert? I've worked
in telecom, and what you claim is untrue. On most systems the
backward link has much lower capacity than the forward link, and
having a bunch of people uploading rather than downloading
saturates the link. It amounts to a DOS attack on other users of
the link.
