Net Neutrality Test Software

Oh, I want this app. I think my provider limits some of my traffic at times. This would be totally sweet. Although I can't imagine it being foolproof. I'm surprised that even without the problem of NN that something like this hasn't come up before. I've had issues online before that would have been very difficult to solve had it not been for my technical bowstaff skillset.

A Seattle-based security researcher has devised a way to test for Net neutrality.

Dan Kaminsky will share details of this technique, which will eventually be rolled into a free software tool, today at the Black Hat USA security conference in Las Vegas. The software can tell whether computers are treating some types of TCP/IP traffic better than others -- dropping data that is being used in voice-over-IP (VoIP) calls or treating encrypted data as second-class.
