Occasionally, they have opened it up, and mpaa and riaa letters start coming in. I think this is actually pretty standard practices for a *lot* of colleges.

I go to University of Alabama in Huntsville and we BARELY get 30k to internet1 sites over an unstable connection, and NO p2p programs work. We’ve been screaming for a faster connection, but to no avail. We CAN use a proxy of sorts to get out, but they have blocked traffic to/from those proxys in the past. One of the many reasons why I’m moving off campus this summer…

Not only can I use p2p but I can learn how to use technologies like apache, smtp, sql, vnc and vpn. I can’t imagine how restricting all sorts of legit stuff on college LAN’s actually helps us learn…. Then again I live off campus so what the hell do I care.

The other labs through our network don’t have any restrictions but the user accounts are limited. So i’ll be investing in large amounts of portable storage.

The University had blocked P2P traffic for a short period for performance reasons. When P2P was throttled and allowed again, the University got a few to several cease and desist letters each day from the RIAA / MPAA with student IPs. After over one hundred letters in a month, the general council decided it would be better for the taxpayers to not fund student legal defence, and the ban was put in place.
