BT and other ISPs knew when I was doing it and, as you said earlier Colin, they throttled my speed. These days BT is blocking me completely from accessing peer to peer sharing websites. I just don't see how Maidsafe will be any different. The number of sites blocked increases by the day. If the authorities decide they don't want people using Maidsafe then they will have it shut down or simply have ISPs block or ban anyone who attempts to use it. Mike.

Although it relies on the speed of individuals connections, I guess it won't matter due to the data being everywhere. It'll pick it up where it is fastest, and maybe even closest (like the cloud works now). It's a system that will only work once millions use it, until then it's bound to be a little slower. I say give it a go when launched, we've nothing to lose after all. Tor on the other hand, I trust very little. Colin.
