Glasnost Not Actually Correct
I finally got a result from the Glasnost server after several unsuccessful attempts, but it’s unfortunately not correct:
Is BitTorrent traffic on a well-known BitTorrent port (6881) throttled?
2 out of 2 BitTorrent transfers were
interrupted while uploading (seeding) using forged TCP RST packets.
It seems like your ISP hinders you from uploading BitTorrent traffic to our test server.
The BitTorrent download worked.
Our tool was successful in downloading data using the BitTorrent protocol.
There’s no indication that your ISP rate limits your BitTorrent downloads.
In our tests a TCP download achieved minimal 2079 Kbps while a BitTorrent download achieved
maximal 2147 Kbps. You can find details here.Is BitTorrent traffic on a non-standard BitTorrent port (4711) throttled?

Immediately before and after this test I seeded a Torrent successfully, at a rate in the range of 30-40 K Bytes/sec. So I know seeding is possible on my connection, but Glasnost claims it isn’t. This is not a cool tool.
Still no answers to my questions, despite a promise to have some by Friday.
