All Users: Please Enable Encryption!

[gamer4eva]

Everyone should enable it even if they notice no change so then others who are wanting to notice change can because they are able to connect to encrypted peers or something like that.

done. everyone should do this because it will increase your upload speed too.

It will only increase your upload speed if your isp use some kind of traffic shaping

thats not true
if the person ur uploading to is being throttled, then both of u enabling encryption will allow them to download faster (therefor u upload faster).
it works the same with downloading. even if ur not being throttled, if u enable encryption, u can then download from throttled users (their upload can be throttled too). this will increase ur download speed, even if ur not being throttled.
enabling encryption is a win-win situation.

i will do it (as should all of us) just to be ready for when all ISPs start thtrotling P2P speeds

Well for some reason I've started experience really slow speed since last week. I've just enabled encryption after reading this article and will post my findings soon .

Even if I don't see any change I will leave it on.

i've been using it for a few weeks now and speeds are fine, so i'll just leave it enabled... other users can benefit from this, and for me it dont matter so much

simple solution: change ISP !!!

Please share is there certain ISPs who are rolling out these 'caps'? Or is it a regional thang?

yeh i'm a bito a noob... so like... doing this will allow other people who connect with my client to "Sneak pass" and make their ISPs think that they're just downloading a webpage or summin other than P2P... correct?

pretty much
allows them to upload to u quicker too, so even if ur not throttled it can speed u up enabling encryption
