dAbReAkA Posted February 17, 2006 Report Share Posted February 17, 2006 what is end to end supposed to mean? there is encryption in the newest betas which is compatible with azureus 2.4 too.. it encrypts the whole traffic, not just the header.. try the newest beta (currently 425) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted February 17, 2006 Report Share Posted February 17, 2006 End-to-end means what it means. Encryption starting from one end and lasting until it reaches its destination (the other end). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dolbysnoopy Posted February 18, 2006 Report Share Posted February 18, 2006 I don't think the encryption in beta as the original bt client has not implement that standard yet. So most of the time the encryption is disabled by default. I don't think ISP will prevent the use of BT to distribute opensource/free softwares like linux.

DreadWingKnight Posted February 18, 2006 Report Share Posted February 18, 2006 I don't think ISP will prevent the use of BT to distribute opensource/free softwares like linux.And yet some already do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vectorferret Posted February 18, 2006 Report Share Posted February 18, 2006 The ISP is worried about bandwidth, not illegalities. They block BT regardless, plus, with just the p2p traffic you don't know if it's legal or not. As for the feature, µTorrent already has an end to end encryption option. By default it will use it if the other peer initiates connection and wants encryption, but won't start encrypted connections. If you change it to enabled, it will try to make an encrypted connection and then fall back if the connection fails. The end-to-end encrption is compatible with the latest Azureus.

dolbysnoopy Posted February 18, 2006 Report Share Posted February 18, 2006 Will you pay for broadband and just use email, web browsing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted February 18, 2006 Report Share Posted February 18, 2006 Hmm? Who's that question addressed to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
splintax Posted February 18, 2006 Report Share Posted February 18, 2006 Well, web browsing is noticeably better with "broadband". Maybe most of us use BitTorrent heaps, but that doesn't stop the other hundreds of thousands of broadband users who DON'T use BT at all and just use it for its other advantages (VoIP, faster iTunes downloads, faster web browsing, no phone line usage etc).

shadek Posted February 18, 2006 Report Share Posted February 18, 2006 Thank god I live in Sweden. The ISPs here give out 1 mbit upload at least... and within 2-3 years, 70% of the people in cities will be able to get 100 mbit up/down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vectorferret Posted February 24, 2006 Report Share Posted February 24, 2006 A texas phone company is rolling out fibre into all their clients homes. So it's starting elsewhere, but it's definantly not common to get much more than 3.0/768 ADSL or the rough equivalent on cable. VDSL/ADSL2+ (etc) are just hitting in Canada now too, but Bell caps the speeds at the same as there ADSL and uses the extra bandwidth for phone line and television signals; so it's not any better for internet at the moment. Hopefully things will change though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
