"Blocking Bittorrent Activity
Bittorrent is a bad thing for Tor, and dealing with abuse complaints can be a headache for the people who run exit nodes. BlockingBittorrent explains how you can block Bittorrent trackers"
Of course, #$%& has no clue how BitTorrent works. It's nearly pointless to route just the tracker callbacks through Tor, and routing the actual data over Tor would overload the network. I don't blame them for making it easy to block BitTorrent traffic; there are other filesharing tools which are a better fit if anonymity is a priority (Freenet, GNUNet, etc). -- Shawn K.
