You can't block everything

So they clamp down on ports 1720 and 1750. Torrents will just move to 1721 and 1751. No matter what they do, people will still work around it.

As a rogers customer, it doesn't matter which port you use anymore, the safe havens of 1720 and 1750 are no longer there, they throttle bit torrent traffic by recognising the header not by port.

So then someone will come out with a hack to make the headers look like something it's not. Or as the summary said, encrypt it flat out.

It's a cat and mouse game, and everytime the cat (Rogers) catches a mouse, another mouse will appear somewhere else and start scurrying around.
