Simplifies the process of finding out whether or not your ISP is actively throttling your BitTorrent upload speeds. It's no secret among Comcast customers that their ISP is actively throttling their BitTorrent connections in the name of network bandwidth "management." The only trouble is that customers of different ISPs may be unaware if the same is happening to them if they're aren't savvy enough to use WireShark or other packet sniffer applications. To prove the existence of file-sharing filters can be difficult, especially if one seeks for evidence on a single computer, but the process gets easier if a test is performed by two remote users exchanging given data packets through a P2P protocol. By comparing what one end of the connection has sent to what the other end has received, one can see if the content has been blocked, delayed or forged by providers.
