And, alas, Comcast now has Sandvine filters in place that block
bittorrent uploading as soon as you are no longer downloading.
The symptom is that as soon as your download reaches 100%, all
bittorrent upload connections get immediately terminated by a
perfectly forged TCP RST packet sent in both directions by a
network router.  That makes it impossible for Comcast HSI
subscribers to be Good Citizens with bittorrent.
