But what kind of traffic shaping?
Talkback Any ISP which says it doesn't use traffic shaping at all is lying, unless it simply doesn't have enough subscribers to fill up its pipes. Is it then doing good traffic shaping, or bad traffic shaping.

What a hypocrite!
Talkback And yet BT is currently engaged in massive traffic-shaping, which commenced - somewhat ironically - this month, coinciding with this article. Whilst it's certainly good to hear that BT has no plans to implement traffic shaping under 21CN, I wish...

not that hard a decission
Talkback the evil in people will soon come out and traffic shaping will be abused by higher powers! Traffic shaping can be used for good but until there are more checks and balances in place than i say wait and stick to neutral for now!

UK regulators 'relaxed' on net neutrality
News The real issue, said Scott, was not the "traffic shaping" policies of ISPs, but the way in which those were communicated to the public. he asked, adding that there "needs to be greater clarity to the consumer on ISPs' traffic-shaping policies".

Which class are you?
Talkback There are good points and bad points to traffic shaping, for instance a standard user will not see much impact from bandwidth throttling while using common applications. While traffic from these is minimal, they can still reflect on how you use the...

Not all ISPs target P2P as badly as BT
Talkback There were many furious posts from people who know a good deal more about this than myself, and the net result was that they agree with you; traffic shaping to *some* degree is expected. There are still ISPs that don't traffic shape or, if they do...
