The problem isn't so much that the powers that be hate us using Skype or making free phone calls, but the problem that every Skype user serves as a Skype node, routing calls throughout the Internet. Having many nodes active on a fast university connection can attract a large amount of traffic to the university network, and someone has to pay the bandwidth bills. Do you reckon this is the reason behind their decision, or is it something else entirely?</p>jstanierMon, 20 Jul 2009 16:51:28 -0000
