[03:28] DaemonFC[m] On top of the VPN, Qbitorrent has a privacy mode that disables the User Agent and some stuff that would be useful to fingerprinters. [03:29] DaemonFC[m] There's really no upside for a conformant bittorrent application to have a User Agent anyway. It's not a part of the negotiation process. [03:30] DaemonFC[m] All it does is add another piece of information that they know about you. A while back, BitComet was adding non-conforming features and then using the UA to see other BitComet users so it could enable them, and then it would also prefer any UA that said BitComet to any other UA. [03:30] schestowitz__ well, it seems they now go beyond bittorrent here [03:30] schestowitz__ I'd say BT [03:30] schestowitz__ for bittorrent [03:30] schestowitz__ but.. [03:30] schestowitz__ I mean British Telecom [03:30] schestowitz__ for me, no p2p but ipfs works similarly [03:30] schestowitz__ not the same [03:31] DaemonFC[m] Well, maybe they're doing something about DHT to fuck with it. I mean, IPFS uses that. [03:31] schestowitz__ so my dispute over this would apply to p2p by extension [03:31] schestowitz__ yes, dht for sure [03:32] DaemonFC[m] Several P2P standards use DHT, so it's also a common point of attack for ISPs that just want an anti-p2p system that's generic enough to attack other things but bittorrent.

That's why most people who torrent use a VPN service [03:34] schestowitz__ of some sort. You can consider that route, as it seems to [03:34] schestowitz__ be quite effective. Battling any ISP over this isn't going [03:34] schestowitz__ to get anywhere anytime soon so a pragmatic solution might [03:34] schestowitz__ just be to go for a VPN now. But we do need to fight this [03:34] schestowitz__ traffic discrimination somehow; it's going to be a very [03:34] schestowitz__ long fight though because the powers-that-are don't want [03:34] schestowitz__ people to freely distribute data over the internet. [03:34] schestowitz__ I've been considering getting a VPN subscription ready just [03:34] schestowitz__ in case they come around and throttle me for dweb/p2p [03:34] schestowitz__ traffic as well. So that's my opinion/advice on that [03:34] schestowitz__ topic. We need to be able to keep working while we deal [03:34] schestowitz__ with the throttling issue, at the end of the day.
