All the ISP would see is a link between two computers, there is no URL involved.<BR/><BR/>I'd be interested to know if any ISP in the world has managed to block P2P file sharing successfully, and by that I don't mean just blocking a few URLs and restricting data transfer.Tim Newmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12037178111868843708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15456688.post-1159310947176260712006-09-27T02:49:00.000+04:002006-09-27T02:49:00.000+04:00Very few will continue to suscribe to the 512kb/s ...Very few will continue to suscribe to the 512kb/s + packages if they do start blocking p2p sites and throttle the bandwith....which means less money in their pockets.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15456688.post-1159307199747184682006-09-27T01:46:00.000+04:002006-09-27T01:46:00.000+04:00This is very sad news.
