Apparently, some BitTorrent-sharing people are using the Tor network. I've received complaints from one Mark Weaver copyright@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, who cited infringement details such as > > Infringement Detail: > > Infringing Work: Harry Potter audio book > > Filepath: Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (2004).torrent > > Filename: Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (2004).part01.rar > > First Found: 7 Oct 2005 07:12:59 EDT (GMT -0400) > > Last Found: 7 Oct 2005 07:12:59 EDT (GMT -0400) > > Filesize: 51,200k > > IP Address: 213.239.210.243 > > IP Port: 18354 > > Network: BTPeers > > Protocol: BitTorrent Has anyone else heard from him, or the Christopher Little Literary Agency? I'm not concerned about the infringement, but about P2P people using the Tor network, and causing unnecessary load. I presume there's no simple way to block BitTorrent using nonstandard ports at this time? I can see how this would be difficult to implement, since requiring tracking BT session state in the outgoing cleartext traffic.
