Most of the p2p applications out there have behind them the BitTorrent technology whose benefits some in the gaming industry (but also other domains) have started to use, hopefully inspiring other industries as well. The beef between ISPs and advocates of net neutrality was generously fed – on one hand, the former claimed that people using p2p clients are slowing down the networks – Comcast was one of the companies that had a ‘special’ policy against BitTorrent traffic which it later admitted to having throttled; on the other hand users revolted against this discrimination and BitTorrent inventor Bram Cohen tried to persuade ISPs to find a middle way, something to please both sides.
