They're working on some protocol which will be backwards compatible, and the bigger sites have agreed to. Next year for rollout.

A few seconds after you connect to someone in the swarm the Sandvine application sends a peer reset message (RST flag) and the upload immediately stops. Most vulnerable are users in a relatively small swarm where you only have a couple of peers you can upload the file to. Only seeding seems to be prevented...But without seeding, I think trackers tag your crap ratio somehow and you get hit in some fashion; just get booted for the private ones, I guess. Cable provider Cogeco and Rogers are doing something similar on a smaller scale.

If you're at a computer that doesn't have a client installed. Has a code generator so that you can offer a torrent download from your site to those without a client on their computer.
