AT&T shapes P2P traffic just like Comcast

The P2P throttling plot thickens!  Gizmodo reports that Azureus/Vuze said earlier today that AT&T is pulling a Comcast by resetting Torrents.  This seems to be a pretty shady business practice that more and more ISP’s are found to be doing.  Can the consumers fight back?

“A month after releasing its plugin that detects if your ISP is performing reset voodooon your torrents, Azureus/Vuze is claiming AT&T hexes them with the same reset TCP packet curse as Comcast, despite AT&T’s explicit statementsotherwise. AT&T denies the accusation and points out a flaw in the plugin’s method, that it can’t tell the difference between naturally occurring TCP resets and artificial ones generated by an ISP. Azureus, while admitting the issue, still says AT&T is full it.”
