Problems Passing Peer2Tracker (P2T) connections as HTTP through Tor

[fstokebanget]

nice explanation, seems interesting, I wonder could it be use on a high level strict trackers ?

I don't think any tracker with strict IP rules will allow this for very long...

I thought you weren't supposed to do large downloads over the Tor network.....?

if you call announcing to a tracker "large downloads."
all the servers can do is disallow p2p on their server. the option is there (as Misc. other services):

I tested the Tor network with p2p and got ~50kBps... a fair download speed, if you ask me. Uploading would be a bitch, though, with private trackers... and that's why I choose not to use it, because of its impracticality.
