Vauge policies

I found the article by Kelvyn Taylor on Peer-to-Peer/Bittorrents (PCW October 2007, Bittorrent Secrets) very interesting - especially the how they work part.

A big problem I have found is with the ISPs, in particular their Fair Use Policies and the threats that account will be terminated for overuse.

My ISP, OneTel, which recently brought in the policy, says its fair use policy restricts high bandwidth activity in peak hours and go on to mention P2P, though are rather vague what fair and reasonable is.
